What are 5 universal fears
pain, unknown, helplessness & dependency, body change and mutliation, death
What is the first step in managing patient fear
-recognition of the patient being scared
What three factors are usually the cause of M&M in dentistry
-inadequate pre-op evalution
-inadequate monitoring during the operative procedure
-lack of knowledge of the pharmacology of administered drugs
What is local anesthesia
elimination of sensation in one body region by topical application or regional injection
-other sense are maintained
What is analgesia
elimination of pain in the conscious patient
What is sedation
-calming of a nervous/apprehensive patient through the use of drugs without inducing loss of conciousness
What is general anesthesia
-elimiantion of all sensation accompanies by loss of conciousness
What are Guedel's four stages of anesthesia?
**KNOW**
-analgesia
-excitment
-surgical anesthesia
-respiratory paralysis
Stage I - analgesia
How are the following affected?
-response to commands
-protective reflexes
-cerebral cortex
-respiratory and eye movements
-pt can respond to commands
-reflexes intact
-depression of cerebral cortex occurs with diminished intellect, memory, time and space perception, and response to noxious stimuli
-normal
Stage II - Excitement
How are the following affected?
-pt response
-protective reflexes
-CNS
-stimulation reaction
-amnesia
-unable to respond
-depressed reflexes (unconcious)
-respiration is irregular and depressed
-exaggerated reaction to stimulation
-complete amnesia
Stage III is known as what
-surgical anesthesia
-divided into 4 planes
Stage IV: Medullary paralysis
-what happens
-respiratory arrest with cessation of circulation
-aka reversible death
-not intentially sought after
List 5 non-drug sedation techniques
-iatrosedation
-hypnosis
-acupuncture
-acupressure
-elecroanesthesia
What is iatrosedation
-relief of anxiety through the doctor and staff's behavior
What are possible routes of drug administration
-topical, oral, rectal, transdermal, subcutaneous, intramuscular, inhalation, intravenous, intrathecal, intramedullary, intraperitoneal
eneteral vs. parenteral
-aborption
E - absorbed from GI tract into GV compartment
P - absorbed from site of administration into CV system, bypassing GI tract
Ad and dis of oral administration
ad - easily accepted, easily administered, safe
dis - long latent period, unreliable absorption, can't titrate, long duration, patient compliance
When is rectal administration used in dentistry
-pediatric patients
Transdermal
ex
-administer drugs to CV system while bypassing GI w/o injecting
-scopalamine, nitroglycerine
Subcutaneous
-useful for what types of drugs
-what cannot be given subq
-absorption
-nonvolatile, water or fat soluble drugs (insulin)
-irritating drugs --> valium
-varies with blood supply to the tissue
intramuscular:
ad -
dis -
intraoral site
ad - rapid onset, more reliable absoprtion than enteral, can give uncooperative pt
dis - latent period, no titration, tissue injury
-tongue and masseter
Inhalation:
ad
dis
-ad - short latent period, titration possible, rapid recovery
dis - need pt cooperation, good nasal airway, size/cost of equipment, additional training and insurance
Intravenous:
ad
dis
ad - short latent period, can titrate, amneisa capable, patient acceptance
dis - rapid allergic rxn, pt must cooperate, need extensive training
-what is the most effective method of assuring predictable and adequate sedation
intravenous route
6 goals of physical evalution
determine:
-physical ability to tolerate stress
-psychological ability to tolerate stress
-treatment modifications to reduce stress
-if need psychosedation
-which type of sedation is most appropriate
-contraindications or possible pharm interactions
Categories to include in your physical assessment of the patient:
-ID, CC, HPI, PMH, P surg/hosp, MEDS, ALL, ROS, FH, SH, PE, RE, impression/assessment, plan or tx indicated
Identification - what to list
-pt's age, sex, referral source, general condition, level of cooperation
Chief complaint
-patients reason for seeking help, in their OWN WORDS
History of presenting illness
-history of pt's disorder
-includes: onset, duration, symptoms, location, radiation, success/fail of past treatments, eliciting factors, degree affecting lifestyle
-also include stress, psychological factors, unreasonable goals
