General Principles of anesthetics
|
for drugs to work on cns they must either be lipid soluble or transported
drugs with low blood solubility have rapid induction/recovery times drugs with high lipid solubiliy have increased potency potency = 1/MAC (min alv concentration) |
|
Inhaled Anesthetics

halothane, Nitrous Oxide, "fluranes"
work by unknown mech cause myocardial depression, resp depression, nausea/emesis, increased cerebral blood flow (lower cerebral metabolic demand) halothane is hepatotoxic methyoxyflurane and enflurane is nephrotoxic can rarely cause malignany hyperthermia proconvu |

|
Local anesthetics
|
esters=procaine, cociane, tetracain
amides=iidocaine, mepivacaine, bupivicapine (amides have 2 I's) block Na channels by binding to the inner portion of the channel (preferentially bind to activated channels so most effective in rapidly firing neurons) used for minor surgical procedures, spinal anesthesia can cause cns excitation! cv toxicity (bupivicaine), htn, hypotention, arrhythmias (cocaine) |
|
Order of sensation loss in local anesthetic use
|
pain->temp->touch->pressure
|
|
Characteristics of local anesthetics on different nerve types
|
works better on small diameter and myelinated fibers
but small outweighs myelination |

alkaline anesthetics are charged and cant pentrate membrane well when tissue is infected (acidic) so use MORE
