General anesthesia involves 3 stages: induction, excitement, and surgical anesthesia. It works by depressing the central nervous system through GABA or glutamate pathways. Anesthesia can be delivered via inhalation of gases or intravenous injection of liquids. Inhalational anesthetics like halothane and nitrous oxide have advantages of being non-flammable but also disadvantages like being a weak analgesic, weak muscle relaxant, and potential cardiotoxicity. Intravenous anesthetics like propofol allow for rapid induction and recovery but cannot be withdrawn once injected. Local anesthesia involves reversible nerve blockade and is administered via various methods to provide localized numbness.
Local anesthetics work by blocking nerve conduction, specifically the entry of sodium ions through voltage-gated channels. This prevents the initiation and propagation of nerve impulses in the area of administration. Local anesthetics can be classified based on their linkage as esters or amides. Amides such as lidocaine are preferred due to lower risk of allergic reactions. Techniques of local anesthesia include infiltration, nerve blocks, and regional techniques like epidural and spinal anesthesia. Proper administration and dosage of local anesthetics is important to avoid potential toxicities.
This document discusses sedative, hypnotic, and anxiolytic drugs. It describes barbiturates and benzodiazepines, which are commonly used as sedative-hypnotics. Barbiturates act by potentiating the inhibitory neurotransmitter GABA, while benzodiazepines facilitate GABA effects by binding to GABAA receptors. The document outlines the mechanisms, effects on sleep, and adverse effects of these drug classes. It also discusses newer nonbenzodiazepine hypnotics and the benzodiazepine antagonist flumazenil.
This document discusses sedative, hypnotic, and anxiolytic drugs. It describes barbiturates and benzodiazepines. Barbiturates were popular hypnotics and sedatives until the 1960s but are no longer used due to risks of overdose, dependence, and withdrawal effects. Benzodiazepines replaced barbiturates as they have a higher therapeutic index and are less likely to cause respiratory depression even at high doses. The document outlines the mechanisms, effects on sleep, and pharmacological properties of barbiturates and benzodiazepines.
Local anesthetics work by blocking sodium channels in nerve fibers, preventing the generation of action potentials and conduction of nerve impulses. They typically contain a hydrophilic amine group, hydrophobic aromatic moiety, and intermediate ester or amide linkage. Esters are metabolized rapidly by plasma esterases while amides are metabolized more slowly by the liver. Common uses of local anesthetics include minor surgery, dental procedures, nerve blocks, epidurals and caudals. Adverse effects can include central nervous system toxicity, cardiac issues like arrhythmias or hypotension, and allergic reactions. Chloroprocaine and lidocaine are examples of commonly used local anesthetic agents.
This document provides information on various anesthetic agents used in ophthalmic procedures, including general anesthetics (GA), regional anesthetics (RA), local anesthetics (LA), and topical anesthetics. It describes the types, mechanisms of action, common drugs, dosages, administration routes, indications, and side effects of different anesthetic classes. Key anesthetic agents discussed include nitrous oxide, halothane, ketamine, propofol, lidocaine, bupivacaine, and tetracaine.
General anesthetics act by modifying the electrical activity of neurons at a molecular level through effects on ion channels. The most widely accepted theory is that they bind directly to ion channels or disrupt proteins that maintain channel function. Common intravenous anesthetics like propofol and benzodiazepines enhance the effects of the inhibitory neurotransmitter GABA. They produce dose-dependent decreases in heart rate, blood pressure and respiratory function.
General and local anaesthesia are reversible conditions used before, during, and after surgical procedures. General anaesthesia renders the patient unaware through drugs like inhaled gases or intravenous injections, allowing for major surgery. Local anaesthesia uses drugs like lidocaine to reversibly block nerve conduction in a restricted area without loss of consciousness, making it suitable for minor procedures. The choice of anaesthesia depends on factors like the health of the patient, type of surgery, and ability to cooperate.

lecture 12 - General & Local Anaesthesia.pptxAbdallahAlasal1
General anesthesia involves controlled reversible depression of the central nervous system characterized by loss of consciousness, sensation, and muscle relaxation while maintaining hemodynamic stability. It works by inhibiting synaptic transmission in the CNS via GABA receptors or NMDA receptors. Common general anesthetics include inhalation agents like nitrous oxide, halothane, isoflurane and intravenous agents like thiopental and propofol. Local anesthetics cause reversible loss of sensation in a localized region without loss of consciousness by blocking nerve conduction. Common local anesthetics include lidocaine, bupivacaine and tetracaine. Both general and local anesthetics have the potential for adverse effects and toxicity if overdosed or accidentally injected intravascularly.
- Local anesthetics are drugs that cause reversible loss of sensation in a restricted area of the body when applied topically or injected locally. They work by blocking nerve conduction without structural nerve damage.
- Early uses of local anesthetics included chewing cocoa leaves for pain relief in Peru and spinal/epidural anesthesia developed in the late 19th century. Common types include amide drugs like lidocaine, bupivacaine, and ropivacaine as well as ester drugs like cocaine and tetracaine.
- Local anesthetics can be administered via various techniques including infiltration, nerve blocks, epidural/spinal anesthesia, intravenous regional anesthesia, and topical application. Factors like drug properties, dosage,
Sedatives calm without sleep, hypnotics induce sleep. Benzodiazepines like diazepam are commonly used sedative-hypnotics with high safety indices. They act by enhancing GABA inhibition. Newer drugs like zolpidem act similarly but with less residual effects. Barbiturates were widely used previously but are no longer preferred due to risks of overdose and dependence. The goal of treatment is to reduce anxiety, induce sleep, and have minimal daytime effects.
Seizures are caused by abnormal electrical activity in the central nervous system. Epilepsy is characterized by recurrent seizures and is classified by generalized or partial seizures. Anti-convulsant drugs work through different mechanisms such as prolonging the inactive state of sodium channels, enhancing GABA activity, suppressing T-type calcium channels, antagonizing glutamate receptors, or modulating calcium channels. Common anti-convulsants include barbiturates, hydantoins, succinimides, benzodiazepines, and newer drugs that have multiple mechanisms of action.

8 Surprising Reasons To Meditate 40 Minutes A Day That Can Change Your Life.pptxHolistified Wellness
We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune DiseaseHealth Advances
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.

1. Anesthesia
262
GENERAL ANESTHESIA
Def.:
CNS depressant, characterized by: loss of consciousness, loss of sensation &
adequate m. relaxation.
Stages of GA.:
1- Stage I : Stage of induction or analgesia
2- Stage II : Stage of excitement or delirium (Dilated reactive pupil)
3- Stage III: Stage of Surgical anesthesia ( Normal pupil)
It is divided into 4 Planes
4- Stage VI: Stage of medullary paralysis (Dilated non-reactive pupil)
Mechanism of action:
Either : - GABA
- NMDA of Glutamate
Classification:
Inhalation I.V.
Gases Volatile liquide 1- Ultra short Barbiturate
2- Non Barbiturate:
Nitrous 1- Halothane - Benzodiazepines
Oxide 2- Enflurane - Propofol
3- Isoflurane - Propanidid
4- Desflurane - Neurolept analgesia
5- Methoxyflurane - Etomidate
6- Trichloro-ethylene - Ketamine
7- Ethylchloride
8- Ether (obsolete)
9- Chloroform (obsolete)
N.B.:
- Most of anesthetics stop respiration before circulation, while chloroform stops
respiration with circulation
- Recovery occurs in reverse order. CO2 & O2 administration can fasten
recovery in inhalation anesthesia
- The onset of action of anesthetic depends on its solubility in blood, thus:
• N2O has low solubility & rapid onset, while
• Methoxyflurane has high solubility & delayed onset.

Disadvantage:
1- Weak anesthetic
2- Weak sk.m. relaxants
3- Produces Diffusion hypoxia: during
recovery it diffuses rapidly O2
conc. In alveoli Hypoxia, so give
O2 during recovery
4- Megaloblastic anemia
5- Teratogenic: to both patient & doctor
N.B.:
- Enflurane : As Halothane but no hepatic toxicity
& less sensitization of heart to catecholamines
- Isoflurane & Desflurane: As Enflurane but:
do not sensitize heart to catecholamines.
- Methoxyflurane: Cardiotoxic & Nephrotoxic
- Balanced anasthesia : N2O + Halothane
Minimal alveolar anesthetic concentration (MAC):
- Definition: It is the minimal alveolar anesthetic concentration at which 50 % of
patients do not respond to a surgical stimulus
- Importance: it is a measure of anesthetic potency, MAC is small for potent
anesthetics, as halothane & large for weak anesthetics as N2O

2- ICT 2- ICT
3- Blood pr. 3- Hypertension
4- IOP 4- Glaucoma
Uses: To provide analgesia for minor procedure esp. in children
Pre-anesthetic medication
Benefits:
1- To produce: sedation , amnesia & analgesia
2- To reduce:
a- amount of anesthesia
b- post-anesthetic complications
c- parasympathetic supply to lungs , salivary gland & heart secretions ,
bronchospasm & reflex vagal stimulation
Drugs used include:
1- Narcotic analgesics: Morphine & Meperidine
2- Anxiolytics :as : - Barbiturate - Benzodiazepines
- Chloralhydrate - Paraldehyde
3- Neuroleptics as: Phenothiazine group
4- Parasympatholytics as : Atropine & Hyoscine
5- Adjuvant drugs:
- Neuromuscular blockers
- Controlled hypotension:[ Trimethaphan – Na Nitroprusside ]
- Hypothermic agents : by Lytic cocktail [Clorpromazine – Promethazine
Meperidine ]
N.B.:
1- Hypotensive drugs as Reserpine may lead to severe hypotension
2- MOA inhibitors potentiate the action of Morphine & Meperidine
3- In Thyrotoxic patients: Hyoscine is used instead of atropine & curare instead of
Gallamine

LOCAL ANESTHESIA
Definition:
Local anesthetics are drugs that cause reversible block of nerve conduction producing
transient localized anesthesia without significantly affecting consciousness.
Structure and Chemical aspects:
They are weak bases formed of lipophylic group connected to ionizable hydrophilic
group by an intermediate chain; which may be amide or ester
Classification:
a) According to their chemical structure.
L.A
Amides Esters
- Lidocaine
- Dibucaine Benzoic a. esters PABA esters
- Prilocaine Cocaine - Procaine
- Mepivacaine - Tetracaine
- Bupivacaine - Benzocaine
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
b) According to their solubility and therapeutic application into:
L.A
1- Soluble L.A suitable for
injection:
• Lidocaine
• Dibucaine
• Procaine
• Tetracaine
All these can produce
surface anesthesia
EXCEPT Procaine which is
effective ONLY by injection
2- Soluble L.A used only
topically:
• Cocaine
• Phenacaine
• Butacaine
Mainly used to
produce topical
anesthesia of the Eye
3- Insoluble L.A:
• Benzocaine
• Orthoform
Used as surface anaesthetics
in the form of powders and
ointments for wounds.
Kinetics:
1- Pass easily mucous membrane except Procaine
2- Benzocaine & Orthoform are insoluble & are used on skin only
3- Fate: - Esters By plasma psudocholine Estrase enz. (Shorter duration)
- Amides By hepatic microsomal enzymes.
4- Excreted in urine & Acidification of urine its excretion
6. Anesthesia
267
Methods of administration:
1- Surface anesthesia:
- By direct application for skin & mucous membrane
2- Infiltration anesthesia:
- By S.C injection to reach fine nerve branches and sensory nerve terminals.
3- Nerve block anesthesia:
- By injection close to the appropriate nerve trunks (Brachial plexus) to produce a
loss of sensation peripherally.
4- Sympathetic block:
It is injected around sympathetic ganglion.
5- Para vertebral block:
It is injected around spinal roots as they emerge
from the paraverterbal foramina.
6- Epidural anesthesia:
- The LA is injected in the epidural space;
between the dura & bony spinal canal
containing fat & connective tissue.
- It can be performed in sacral hiatus (Caudal anesthesia)
7- Spinal:
- The LA is injected in the subarachnoid space
in the lumbar region
- The level of spinal anesthesia depends upon:
i. Posture of the patient.
ii. Specific gravity of the injected solution.
Mechanism of action:
- They act from inside the nerve
& inhibit Na influx
membrane stabilization
- Fibers are affected in this sequence
(Sensory, cold, touch, pressure & lastly motor) & unmyelinated before myelinated.
- Recovery occurs in the reverse direction
Factors modifying action:
1- Extracellular pH: increased pH (alkaline medium) the action due to non-
ionised forms their absorption to act from inside & vice versa
**(Acidosis as in inflammation the action)
2- Extracellular ions: - Ca antagonize the action
- K enhance the action
3- Intracellular pH: tissue level of CO2 intracellular acidosis
accumulation of ionized form the action
4- Hyaluronidase enz. Onset, spread & depth of action
5- V.C. as Adrenaline prolongation of action

7. Anesthesia
268
Actions
1- Local anesthetic action
2- C.N.S.: stimulation (tremors , convulsions) followed by depression
3- C.V.S.: - Heart Quinidine like except Cocaine
- Bl.V. VD except Cocaine which produce VC
4- Smooth muscle: spasmolytic
Toxicity of L.A.:
A- Systemic:
1- Allergy: esp. with ester type
2- Methaemoglobinemia with Prilocaine
3- C.V.S.: - Shock
- Vasovagal syncope [ Bradycardia – Hypotension – fainting]
4- C.N.S.: stimulation then depression
NB.: PABA esters as procaine are hydrolysed into PABA, so antagonize the
effect of sulphonamiides
B- Local:
1- Pain at site of injection
2- Persistent paraesthesia or anesthetic effect.
3- Haematoma.
4- Oedema.
C- Toxicity of spinal anesthesia:
a- Early:
- Hypotension: due to arterio-dilatation & veino-dilatation
ttt by [ elevate legs – I.V. fluids –sympathomimetics]
- Respiratory paralysis
b- Late:
- Septic meningitis
- Headache in 10% of patients
Contraindications:
1- Advanced liver disease (no enzyme to metabolize it).
2- In hypertensive patients give L.A. alone without adrenaline or
noradrenaline
3- Thyrotoxicosis and heart disease give L.A. with noradrenaline but NOT
adrenaline
