anesthesia = ?

General anesthesia?
loss of feeling of sensation (to avoid pain & memories)

state of unconsciousness, analgesia & amnesia
Action of NON-depolarizing drugs?
forces muscle to remain in relaxed state
Action of depolarizing drugs?
forces muscle into rapid contractions, until it reaches flaccid paralysis (can't receive any neural comms)
Functional drugs?
don't treat a disease/disorder
MAC
Minimum alveolar concentration

Concentration of anesthetic gas required to eliminate movement in 50% of patients

(smaller MAC = more potent agent)
