Advantages Non pungent Useful in Children Needle phobic adult Airway difficulty anticipated patients Disadvantages High risk of developing airway obstruction
RSI Uses predetermined dose of intravenous anaesthetic agent+rapidly acting Muscle relaxant Used in individuals with high risk of regurgitation Secures airway quickly Needed in: Emergency surgery Non Emergency Surgery patient with delayed stomach empying
TIVA Uses propofol and ultrashort acting opioid remifenta nil Advantages : Lack cumulative effect Better hemodynamic stability Excellent recovery profile Used routinely in: Neurosurgery Airway laser surgery Cardiopulmonary bypass Day case anaesthesia
Maint enance of anaesthesia done using continuous infusion of intravenous agents -propofol or inhaled vapour-isoflurane,sevoflurane,desflurane NITROUS OXIDE have weak anaesthetic and analgesic property Postoperative nausea and vomiting Increases size of air bubbles Mutagenic Greenhouse gas
Management of ventilation during anaesthesia General anaesthesia Loss of Muscle tone Unable to keep the air way open with the use of muscle relaxant,patient unable to breathe by their own,so need artificial ventilation
‘‘
Supraglottic airways 1.Laryngeal mask airway(LMA) - first generation supraglottic airway -mask with an inflatable cuff is inserted via the mouth and produces a seal around the gl ottic opening -less irritating -less traumatic to patients airway -can be easily taught to Non anaesthetist and paramedics -used as emergency airway management tool
Types First generation LMA Classic LMA Flexible LMA Second generation LMA - good safety and efficacy than 1st generation ProSeal LMA i-gel Modified versions of LMA In cubating LMA(ILMA)
Endotracheal intubation - feasible in most patient -But complications are present
Muscle relaxation Neuromuscular blocking agents blockage of neuromuscular transmission Relaxation of muscles Easy surgical access
2 Types 1.Depolarising agents Depolarising agents Bind to nicotinic acetylcholine receceptors Opening of cation channels Depolari zation Rapid relaxation of muscles
2.Non Depolarising agents Non Depolarising agents Competitive blockade of postsynaptic receptors at NMJ Longer,predictable activity. Reqire careful monitoring
Ventilation during anaesthesia Mechanical ventil ation required when i)patient‘s spontaneous ventilation is inadequate ii)patient is not breathing because of effect of anaesthetic,analgesicagents or muscle relaxants
Monitoring and care during anaesthesia Cardiovascular paramet er monitoring are required in surgery Vascular ECG Blood pressure Adequacy of ventilation Inspired oxygen concentration Oxygen saturation by pulse oximetery End tidal carbon dioxide concentration
Others are Monitoring of temperature, ventilation parameter and delivery of anaesthetic agent routinely used Measurement of urine output and central venous pressure recommended for major surgery
