DAANCE Module 3
5 primary areas where anesthetics work - ✔✔1)center of emotion versed
2)wakefulness center propofol
3)relay center ketamine
4)opoid receptors
5)vitals center
Pharmacokinetics - ✔✔Refers to effects the body does to the drug
Pharmacodynamics - ✔✔Refers to the effects that the drugs has on various body systems
Minimal sedation - ✔✔Anxiolysis, normal response to verbal stimulation w/airway reflex, ventilation and
CV functions unaffected
Moderate (Conscious Sedation) - ✔✔Purposeful response to verbal & tactile stimuli w/no compromise
airway, spontaneous ventilation, CV
Deep Sedation - ✔✔Pt. Cannot easily be aroused but has purposeful response after painful stimuli, CV
unaffected, but ventilation may need supported
General Anesthesia - ✔✔Pt. Is not aroused even w/painful stimuli, airway intervention is required, and
positive pressure may be required for ventilation, CV may be impaired
Discharge Criteria - ✔✔Within 20% of preoperative value, minimal pain, minimal bleeding, minimal
nausea, steady gait w/no dizziness
Most common place for IV - ✔✔Antecubital fossa, dorsum back of the hand
Propofol vs Barbiturates (Brevital) - ✔✔Bronchodilation effect, antiemetic (ant-nausea) effect,
emergence euphoria, short half life, and not predisposing to Laryngospasm
