FACILITATOR: Editha I. Chan-Francisco, MD, DPBA, FPSA

GENERAL ANESTHESIA (GA) • IV access
• Patient positioning
• A state wherein unconsciousness, amnesia, analgesia, • Patient monitoring
immobility, and attenuation of autonomic response to
noxious stimuli are achieved by administration of drugs. MODE OF ADMINISTRATION
• Inhalation
• Intravenous
INHALATIONAL ANESTHESIA
• The patient must receive an adequate:
o Concentration of oxygen to prevent hypoxia
o Concentration of anesthetic drug to ensure
unconsciousness
o Flow of fresh gas to prevent hypercarbia
STAGES OF ANESTHESIA
• Stage 1: Analgesia
INDICATIONS o Period between the initial administration of the
• Infants and young children induction agents and loss of consciousness
• Extensive and prolonged surgery • Stage 2: Excitement
• Patients with mental diseases o Period following loss of consciousness and
• Surgery for which local anesthesia is neither practical nor marked by excited and delirious activity
satisfactory • Stage 3: Surgical Anesthesia
• Patients with history of toxic or allergic reaction to local o Skeletal muscle relaxation, regular breathing,
anesthetics cessation of eye movements
• Patients on anti-coagulant therapy o 4 planes:
§ Eyes initially rolling, then becoming fixed
ADVANTAGES § Loss of corneal and laryngeal reflexes
• Reduces intraoperative patient awareness and recall § Pupils dilate and loss of light reflex
• Proper muscle relaxation for prolonged periods of time § Intercostal paralysis, shallow abdominal
• Control of the airway, breathing, and circulation respiration
• Can be administered without moving patient from the • Stage 4: Medullary Depression

duration or extent
• Can be administered rapidly and is reversible GENERAL INHALATIONAL ANESTHESIA
• GAS vs. VAPOUR
DISADVANTAGES • GAS LAWS (these govern the physicochemical activity of
• Requires increased complexity of care and associated inhaled anesthetics)
costs o Boyle’s Law
• Requires some degree of preoperative patient preparation § At a constant temperature, volume is
• Can induce physiologic fluctuations that require active inversely proportional to pressure
intervention o Charles Law
• Complications like nausea or vomiting, sore throat, § At a constant pressure, temperature and
headache, shivering, and delayed return to normal mental volume are directly proportional
functioning o Gay-Lussac’s Law
• Associated with malignant hyperthermia § At a constant volume, temperature and
pressure are directly proportional
OVERVIEW OF THE CONDUCT OF o Dalton’s Law
GENERAL ANESTHESIA § In a mixture of non-reacting gases, the
total pressure is equivalent to the sum of

all the partial pressures of each gas
o Pre-operative evaluation
o Henry’s Law
o Preparation for anesthesia
§ Governs solubility of gases
o Induction of anesthesia
§ Solubility depends on the partial

pressure of the gas
o Maintenance of anesthesia
o Avogadro’s Law
o Emergence from anesthesia
§ Equal volumes contains equal number of

molecules
o Graham’s Law
PREPARATION FOR ANESTHESIA
§ Law of diffusion across a semi-permeable

• Preparation of the anesthesia machine and vaporizers, to the molecular weight of the agent
circuits and ventilators

• Disadvantages
o Increases resistance to respiration
o Trauma
TECHNIQUES IN LARYNGOSCOPY
• Direct laryngoscopy
• Indirect laryngoscopy
• Video Laryngoscope (Glidescope)
Direct laryngoscopy
• (Batch 2016) By the use of laryngoscope
• If you are right handed, you hold the laryngoscope with your left
hand and insert the endotracheal tube with your right hand and
vice versa
Indirect laryngoscopy
