- 4. Systems of thebody differing4 Low acidity in infants Lowered secretion of gastric acid Low concentration of bile acids,lipase Infants and young children are relatively deficient in liver enzymes At risk for toxicity if not dosed correctly Vast majority of drugs excreted via renal system. Immature renal capacity hampers excretion.

- 14. Terminologies General anesthesia:Elimination of all sensation accompanied by loss of consciousness. Analgesia: Diminution/elimination of pain in the conscious patient Deep sedation : A controlled ,pharmacologically induced state of depressed consciousness that retains the patients ability to independently and continuously maintain airway and respond appropriately to physical stimulation and verbal command that is produced. 14
- 15. Terminologies Dissociative anesthesia:Dissociative anesthesia is a form of anesthesia characterized by catalepsy, catatonia, analgesia, and amnesia. It does not necessarily involve loss of consciousness and thus does not always imply a state of general anesthesia. Neuroleptic anesthesia : An intense analgesic and amnesic state produced by administration of narcotic and neuroleptic drugs; unconsciousness may occur, and cardiorespiratory function may be altered. Relative analgesia: Used to describe a state of altered consciousness in which a person is more carefree and relaxed. Other terms : Chemamnesia, Sedamnesia,Twilight sleep,Comedication. 15
- 16. Conscious A patient issaid to be conscious if he is capable of rational response to command and if he has all his protective reflexes intact, including the ability to maintain and clear his airway in a patent state. 16 American Association of Anesthesiology
- 17. Conscious sedation A medicallycontrolled state of depressed consciousness that allows protective reflexes to be maintained , retains the patients ability to maintain a patent airway independently and continuously, and appropriate response by the patient to physical or verbal command. 17
- 18. Objectives Alter patients mood,makinghim psychologically acceptant. Must allow to maintain consciousness throughout the procedure. Must result in patient cooperation. Should raise pain threshold. Must allow protective reflexes to be intact. Should produce only small variation in vitals. 18
- 19. Indications Dental Anxiety Medical,physical,cognitive disability Involuntarymovement conditions 19
- 20. Clinical guidelines foruse of conscious sedation Patient evaluation (ASA) Informed consent Monitor baseline vitals Preoperative dietary restrictions Written instructions to caregiver One additional personnel trained in BLS 20
- 21. Appropriate intake offood and liquids before elective sedation Ingested mateial NBM Clear liquids, clear tea, black coffee 2 hrs Breast milk 4 Non human milk 6 Light meal : Toast + clear liquids 6 21

- 23. Routes of administration •Easy to administer • Easy to monitor • Level of sedation can not be easily changed Oral • Non invasive • Drugs have very rapid onset • Short recovery period Inhalational Parenteral 23 • Intravenous • Intramuscular • Subcutaneous
- 24. Oral sedation Advantages Ease ofadministration Low cost Decreased adverse reactions No specialised training Disadvantages Patient compliance needed Prolonged latent period Inability to titrate Unpredictable action duration 24
- 25. Factors influencing drug absorbtion Lipidsolubility pH of gastric tissues Mucosal surface area Gastric emptying time Dosage form of drug Drug inactivation Presence of food in stomach 25
- 26. Drugs used forpreoperative anxiolysis Ethyl alcohol Barbiturates Benzodiazepines Non benzodiazepine anxiolytics Chloral derivatives 26
- 27. Oral barbiturates • 16-24hrCNS depression • Phenobarbital • Sleeping pills Long acting • 3-4 hour duration • Pentobarbital • Insomnia Short acting • Thiopental • Methohexital Ultrashort acting 27 Disadvantage: Addictive, develop tolerance,implicated in suicide attempts
- 28. Benzodiazepines Flurazepam Diazepam Lorazepam Midazolam Prefered in managementof preoperative anxiety . Advantage: Safety over other sedative- hypnotics 28
- 29. Chloral hydrate Popularly usedin pediatric dentistry earlier Produces GI irritation. No analgesic properties. Oral dose 50 mg/kg Half life 7-9.5 hours. Rapid onset drowsy sleep within 30-45 minutes. Diration of action is 2-5 hours 29
- 30. H1 Histamine Blockers(Antihistamines) Promethazine Phenothiazine Decreased agitation,hyperactivity Antihistaminic,Antiemetic,sedativeproperty Does not cause unconsciousness in large doses Does not depress respiratory , cardiovascular system. Adverse effect-Drying of mouth,blurred vision Dose: 12.5-25 mg 1 hour prior 30
- 31. Rationale for use Reduceanxiety prior to dental appointment To be taken 1 hour HS Not advocated for deep level of sedation since its not controllable. Thorough knowledge of adverse effects a must. 31
- 32. Rectal sedation Advantages Rapid onset Noninvasive Low cost Disadvantages Does not bypass the hepatic first pass effect Lack of control 32

Drugs Opiods , sedatives Oral submucosal fentanyl citrate (fentanyl lollipop) Midazolam(0.2-0.4 mg/kg) and sufentanil (spray) Can be used when speed is of essence 34
- 35. Intramuscular sedation Advantages Rapid onset Maximalclinical effect in 30 mins More reliable absorbtion Patient cooperation not essential Disadvantages Inability to titrate Inability to reverse action Prolonged duration of drug effect Painful injection 35
