FACULTY OF MEDICINE THE UNIVERSITY OF JORDAN Goals of General Anesthesia Hypnosis (unconsciousness) Amnesia Analgesia Immobility/decreased muscle tone (relaxation of skeletal muscle) Reduction of certain autonomic reflexes (gag reflex, tachycardia, vasoconstriction) Intravenous Anesthetics A drug that induces reversible anesthesia The state of loss of sensations, or awareness. Either stimulates an inhibitory neuron, or inhibits an excitatory neuron. Organs are divided according to blood perfusion: High- perfusion organs (vessel-rich); brain takes up disproportionately large amount of drug compared to less perfused areas (muscles, fat, and vessel-poor groups). After IV injection, vessel-rich group takes most of the available drug Drugs bound to plasma proteins are unavailable for uptake by an organ After highly perfused organs are saturated during initial distribution, the greater mass of the less perfused organs continue to take up drug from the bloodstream. As plasma concentration falls, some drug leaves the highly perfused organs to maintain equilibrium. This redistribution from the vessel-rich group is responsible for termination of effect of many anesthetic drugs.

Evaluate safety ofFospropofol Study Design: Patients are to be administered 50 mcg offentanyl intravenously before beginning the procedure and before administering sedation. One additional dose of25 mcg of fentanyl may be administered after an interval of 10 minutes if the patient appears to be in pain. Randomized, double-blinded, dose-control with patients assigned 1: 1 to one of two initial sedation doses ofFospropofol: either 2 mg/kg (range 120 mg to 180 mg) or 6.5 mg/kg (range 390 to 585 mg). The initial dose offospropofol is to be administered 5 minutes after administration of the initial dose of fentanyl. The initial dose ofFospropofol and up to two additional supplemental doses may be administered at four minute intervals to achieve an OAA/S score of not more than 4/5. The supplemental doses ofFospropofol are 0.5 mg/kg (range 30-45 mg) for the patients treated with an initial dose of2 mg/kg and 1.63 mg/kg (range 97.5-146 mg) for patients treated with an initial dose of 6.5 mg/kg.

Clinical Anesthesia and Analgesia in Fish Lynne U. Sneddon University of Liverpool KEYWORDS Analgesics, anesthetic drugs, fish, local anesthetics, opioids, NSAIDs ABSTRACT Fish have become a popular experimental model and companion animal, and are also farmed and caught for food. Thus, surgical and invasive procedures in this animal group are common, and this review will focus on the anesthesia and analgesia of fish. A variety of anesthetic agents are commonly applied to fish via immersion. Correct dosing can result in effective anesthesia for acute procedures as well as loss of consciousness for surgical interventions. Dose and anesthetic agent vary between species of fish and are further confounded by a variety of physiological parameters (e.g., body weight, physiological stress) as well as environmental conditions (e.g., water temperature). Combination anesthesia, where 2 anesthetic agents are used, has been effective for fish but is not routinely used because of a lack of experimental validation. Analgesia is a relatively underexplored issue in regards to fish medicine.

    Capítulo 30 Anestesia intravenosa JAAP VUYK • ELSKE SITSEN • MARIJE REEKERS Agradecimientos. Los redactores y el editor desean agradecer a los Dres. J. G. Reves, Peter Glass, David A. Lubarsky, Matthew D. McEvoy y Ricardo Martinez-Ruiz la aportación de un capítulo sobre el mismo tema en la edición previa de este tratado, que ha servido de base para el presente capítulo. P UNTOS CLAVE • La introducción de tiopental en la práctica clínica en 1934 supuso el comienzo de la era de la anestesia intravenosa (i.v.) moderna. Hoy en día, los anestésicos i.v. forman parte de la inducción y el mantenimiento de la anestesia y la sedación en un amplio abanico de situaciones. • El anestésico i.v. más utilizado es el propofol, un alquilfenol formulado en emulsión lipídica. Se trata de un fármaco que ofrece rapidez de inicio y finalización de acción, así como tiempos decrecientes concordantes con el contexto de unos 10 min en infusiones de duración menor de 3 h e inferior a 40 min en aquellas de hasta 8 h. Su mecanismo de acción podría corresponder a la potenciación de las corrientes de cloro inducidas por el ácido g-aminobutírico (GABA). El propofol induce una disminución dependiente de la dosis de la presión arterial media por sendas reducciones del gasto cardíaco y la resistencia vascular periférica, y ocasiona una depresión respiratoria moderada. El efecto antiemético constituye un rasgo exclusivo de este compuesto incluso a concentraciones menores de las que producen sedación. • Los barbitúricos constituían los fármacos i.v. más utilizados en la inducción de la anestesia con anterioridad a la introducción del propofol.
