|
|
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

|
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
