Conscious sedation is a type of sedation that minimizes pain and discomfort through sedatives and analgesics while maintaining an altered state of consciousness. It allows for quick recovery and is safe and effective for minor procedures. The American Society of Anesthesiologists provides guidelines for four levels of sedation. Common medications used include midazolam, fentanyl, and propofol which are carefully titrated based on the individual patient. Close monitoring of vital signs is required during and after a procedure, and complications like respiratory depression require reversal agents such as naloxone or flumazenil.

Sedation in dentistry | Pediatric Sedation | Conscious SedationDr. Rajat Sachdeva
A phobic patient for their Dental treatment may suffer discomfort during the procedure.
Sedation to calm down the patient is quite necessary for proficient procedure.
Various sedation depending on phases of consciousness are mild, moderate, deep.All these sedation are non-assistant type or patient can breath by his or her own.
But under General anesthesia, patient bin completely unconscious and requires assistant in breathing.
However, to accomplish a procedure, patient should be calm and anxiety free.

Title: Sense of Smell
Presenter: Dr. Faiza, Assistant Professor of Physiology
Qualifications:
MBBS (Best Graduate, AIMC Lahore)
FCPS Physiology
ICMT, CHPE, DHPE (STMU)
MPH (GC University, Faisalabad)
MBA (Virtual University of Pakistan)
Learning Objectives:
Describe the primary categories of smells and the concept of odor blindness.
Explain the structure and location of the olfactory membrane and mucosa, including the types and roles of cells involved in olfaction.
Describe the pathway and mechanisms of olfactory signal transmission from the olfactory receptors to the brain.
Illustrate the biochemical cascade triggered by odorant binding to olfactory receptors, including the role of G-proteins and second messengers in generating an action potential.
Identify different types of olfactory disorders such as anosmia, hyposmia, hyperosmia, and dysosmia, including their potential causes.
Key Topics:
Olfactory Genes:
3% of the human genome accounts for olfactory genes.
400 genes for odorant receptors.
Olfactory Membrane:
Located in the superior part of the nasal cavity.
Medially: Folds downward along the superior septum.
Laterally: Folds over the superior turbinate and upper surface of the middle turbinate.
Total surface area: 5-10 square centimeters.
Olfactory Mucosa:
Olfactory Cells: Bipolar nerve cells derived from the CNS (100 million), with 4-25 olfactory cilia per cell.
Sustentacular Cells: Produce mucus and maintain ionic and molecular environment.
Basal Cells: Replace worn-out olfactory cells with an average lifespan of 1-2 months.
Bowman’s Gland: Secretes mucus.
Stimulation of Olfactory Cells:
Odorant dissolves in mucus and attaches to receptors on olfactory cilia.
Involves a cascade effect through G-proteins and second messengers, leading to depolarization and action potential generation in the olfactory nerve.
Quality of a Good Odorant:
Small (3-20 Carbon atoms), volatile, water-soluble, and lipid-soluble.
Facilitated by odorant-binding proteins in mucus.
Membrane Potential and Action Potential:
Resting membrane potential: -55mV.
Action potential frequency in the olfactory nerve increases with odorant strength.
Adaptation Towards the Sense of Smell:
Rapid adaptation within the first second, with further slow adaptation.
Psychological adaptation greater than receptor adaptation, involving feedback inhibition from the central nervous system.
Primary Sensations of Smell:
Camphoraceous, Musky, Floral, Pepperminty, Ethereal, Pungent, Putrid.
Odor Detection Threshold:
Examples: Hydrogen sulfide (0.0005 ppm), Methyl-mercaptan (0.002 ppm).
Some toxic substances are odorless at lethal concentrations.
Characteristics of Smell:
Odor blindness for single substances due to lack of appropriate receptor protein.
Behavioral and emotional influences of smell.
Transmission of Olfactory Signals:
From olfactory cells to glomeruli in the olfactory bulb, involving lateral inhibition.
Primitive, less old, and new olfactory systems with different path

Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS

MANAGEMENT OF ATRIOVENTRICULAR CONDUCTION BLOCK.pdfJim Jacob Roy
Cardiac conduction defects can occur due to various causes.
Atrioventricular conduction blocks ( AV blocks ) are classified into 3 types.
This document describes the acute management of AV block.
3. What is Conscious
Sedation?
• A type of sedation that “ induces an altered
state of consciousness that minimizes pain and
discomfort through the use of pain relievers
and sedatives.”
• Sedation is a continuum and a patient can
easily fall into a deeper level of sedation
4. Why use Conscious
Sedation?
• Safe and effective for patients who need
minor surgery or diagnostic/interventional
procedures
• Allows for quick recovery
5. Sedation Classes
• American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) is
responsible for developing practice guidelines
for procedural sedation
• Four sedation depths classified
7. Indications of Conscious sedation
• Prolonged or traumatic dental procedures
• Medical conditions potentially aggravated by stress
• Medical conditions affecting the patient’s ability to
cooperate
• Patient lacking cooperation because of lack of
psychological or emotional maturity
8. Contraindications
• Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD),
epilepsy, & bleeding disorders.
• Uncooperative or unwilling patients.
• Unaccompanied patients..
• Prolonged surgery.
• Lack of equipment or inadequate personnel.
9. Pre-requisites
• Knowledge of the agents to be used
• Informed Consent
• Appropriate equipment required
• Planned rationale for use of sedation
12. Medications
• Typically, sedatives are used in conjunction
with analgesics (pain relievers) for conscious
sedation
• This combination can have a synergistic effect,
a result greater than the sum of the individual
medications.
• Dosage is titrated for desired effect in each
patient
13. Medications
• Sedatives (initial dosage in parentheses):
• Valium (Benzodiazepine)
– Given PO (5-10 mg) and/or IV (5 mg)
• Midazolam (Benzodiazepine)
– Given IV (1-2 mg)
15. Medications
Hypnotics, typically given only by
anesthesiologist/CRNA:
• Propofol (hypnotic)
– Given IV using weight-based dosing
• Etomidate (hypnotic)
– Given IV using weight-based dosing
Usually given in combination with sedatives
16. CAUTION
• Dosages need to be adjusted for elderly
patients and pediatric patients.
• Regular dosing may cause severe side effects
and complications.
22. Pre-op assessment
• Obtaining patient history & information.
• Age, weight, height
• Health history
• Systems review
• Airway evaluation
• ASA Physical Status Classification
• Adequate documentation of the sedation
experience with monitoring of vital signs
23. During procedure
• Patient must be monitored closely!
– EKG, Heart rate, BP, Oxygen saturation, Airway,
Respiratory rate, Response to stimuli, Appearance
of patient
• Vital signs taken every 5 minutes at minimum
25. Reversal/rescue
• “Rescue of a patient from a deeper level of
sedation than intended; correction of adverse
physiologic consequences of the deeper-than
intended level of sedation (such as
hypoventilation, hypoxia and hypotension)
and returns the patient to the originally
intended level of sedation.”
26. Reversal agents
• Medications are available to counteract the
effects of conscious sedation drugs:
– Naloxone- used for narcotic reversal
– Flumazenil- used for benzodiazepine reversal
• Careful monitoring of patient is required
duration of action is less than narcotics and
benzos
27. Post-op
• Patient will be closely monitored 30 minutes
to 2 hours after procedure.
• Depending on type of procedure and amount
of each individual patient’s recovery time,
discharge can be as soon as one to two hours
• Patient should not drive, operate heavy
machinery, or make any legal decisions for 24
hours.
