devices
d) all of the above -Answer- d) all of the above
General Anesthesia -Answer- a drug-induced reversible state of
unconsciousness, it includes amnesia, analgesia, loss of
responsiveness, decreased stress response, and loss of skeletal
muscle reflexes to varying degree
Regional Anesthesia -Answer- an injection of local anesthetics
near nerve fibers to
cause reversible loss of sensation over an area of the body,
common examples
includ spinal, epidural, and peripheral
e nerve blocks
,Monitored Anesthesia Care (MAC) -Answer- when an
anesthesia provider monitors the patient, administers
sedatives and other agents as needed, and provides
medical services as needed
Moderate Sedation -Answer- the administration of sedative,
analgesic, and/or anxiolytic agents by a physician or under
physician supervision. Depending on state laws and hospital
policies, a perioperative nurse may be able to administer this type
of anesthesia
Local Anesthesia -Answer- The infiltration or topical
administration of agents to anesthetize a part of the body. It is
typically used for minor procedures, does not involve an
anesthesia provider, and does not involve sedation. A
perioperative nurse monitors the patient and provides supportive
care if needed.
