Presentation Transcript

  1. Anesthesia Electives Lecture 1

  2. Upper Airway • Nose and mouth • Air is humidified • Innvervations • Trigeminal nerve • Opthalmic division • Anterior ethmoidal • Maxillary division • Sphenopalatine ganglion • Mandibular division • Lingual nerve • Nasopalatine nerve

  3. Upper Airway • Pharynx • Glossopharyngeal nerve • Posterior third of tongue, soft palate, and oropharyx • Vagus nerve • Internal branches of superior laryngeal nerves = sensory innervation of hypopharynx • 3 parts • Nasopharynx [Soft palate] • Oropharynx [Epiglottis] • Hypopharynx

  4. Upper Airway • Larynx • Articulating cartilages • 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th cervical vertebrae • Separates trachea and esophagus • Vocal cords: formed by thyroarytenoid ligaments • Trachea • Starts: 6th cervical vertebrae • Ends: bifurcation (carina)of the 5th thoracic vertebrae • Supported by 16-20 horsehoe-shaped cartilages

  5. Upper Airway • Anterior structures • Skin  superficial  deep fascia • Thyroid isthmus • Lower neck strap muscles • Sternohyoid • Sternothyroid • Blood supply • Superior thyroid artery  superior laryngeal artery • Inferior thyroid artery  inferior larygneal artery • Venous drainage: Superior and inferior thyroid veins

  6. Upper Airway • Mallampati classification

  7. Upper Airway • Cormack and Lehane score

  8. Upper Airway • Atlanto-occipital extension • Extension of the head • Aligning the oral and pharyngeal axes

  9. Endotracheal Intubation • Indications • Provide to patent airway • Prevent inhalation of gastric contents • Need for frequent suctioning • Facilitate positive-pressure ventilation of the lungs • Operative position other than supine • Operative site near or involving the upper airways • Airway maintenance by mask difficult

  10. Endotracheal Intubation • Equipment • Endotracheal tube • Laryngoscope • Suction catheter • Anesthetic drugs • Equipment providing positive pressure ventilation

  11. Endotracheal Intubation

  12. Endotracheal Intubation

  13. Endotracheal Intubation

  14. Endotracheal Intubation • Endotracheal tube sizes • Internal diameter (ID) • Lengthwise markings

  15. Endotracheal Intubation • Cricoid pressure • “Sellick’s maneuver” • Exerting downward pressure on cricoid cartilage • Displace cricothyroid ring posteriorly; compress underlying esophagus against cervical vertebrae • Prevent spillage of contents into pharynx • Allows glottic area to be seen easier during intubation

  16. Extubation • Criteria • Adequate respiratory drive • Respiratory muscle strength • Cough reflex • Laryngeal function • Clearance of sedative / medications

  17. General Anesthesia • Act on CNS • Modifies electrical activity of neurons at molecular level • Ion channels dysruption • Essential components • Analgesia • Sedation • Depression of reflexes • Muscle relaxation

  18. General Anesthesia

  19. General Anesthesia • Theories • Lipid theory • Greater anesthetic solubility in oil = greater the potency • Protein theory • Greater ability to inhibit enzyme activity of protein = greater the potency • Binding theory • Anesthetics attach to hydrophobic area of the ion channel • 2 kinds • Inhalational • Intravenous

  20. Inhalational • E.g. • Halothane • Isoflurane • Desflurane • Sevoflurane • Gasses or vapors • Produces • Immobility • Analgesia • MAC (Minimum alveolar concentration required to suppress movement to a surgical incision in 50% patients)

  21. Inhalational • Central nervous system depression • Enhance inhibitory ion channels (hyperpolarization of the neuron) • Block excitatory ion channels • Depressed respiration and response to CO2 • Other effects • Depression of renal blood flow • Depression of urine output • Relaxation of skeletal muscles • Reduction in arterial pressure and PVR • Increase cerebral blood flow • Decreased cerebral metabolism

  22. Inhalational • Rate of entry into brain • Low solubility in blood = faster induction and recovery = fast increase in partial pressure • High solubility in blood= slower induction and recovery = slower increase in partial pressure

  23. Inhalational • Adverse effects • Depression of respiratory drive( CO2 dive) • Depressed cardiovascular drive • Fluoride-ion toxicity (methoxyflurane) • Decreases renal function • Fluoride will accumulate (nephrotoxicity) • Malignant hyperthermia

  24. Inhalational • Molecular structure • Halogenated hydrocarbons • Can induce cardiac arrhythmias • Fluorination: increases stability of molecule

  25. Intravenous • Intravenous • Injections • Combined with inhalational anesthestics • Purpose: • Maintain GA • Supplement • Sedation • Control BP • Brain protection
