Anesthesia is the name of a group of drugs that temporarily desensitize an area of ​​the body, thereby reducing pain caused by irritants or minor skin or surgical procedures. mucosa. Local anesthetics can be given as an injection, topical, or spray. Topical formulations are often used to relieve the burning sensation of sunburn, burns, insect stings, pain during injections, or certain other skin procedures. Like all drugs, the use of local anesthetics is subject to undesirable effects, including allergies.

Anesthetics act on all central nerve fibers (sensory, motor) and autonomic nerves, from small fibers to large fibers, depending on the concentration of the drug. The order of loss of sensation is pain, cold, heat, shallow touch, then deep touch, and finally movement. When the drug wears off, the effect returns in the opposite direction.

Regional anesthesia is currently a trend in multimodal analgesia for treating postoperative pain. Combining regional anesthesia with conventional analgesics reduces the use of morphine after surgery, thereby reducing the side effects of the drug such as itching, vomiting, nausea, urinary retention, respiratory failure, addiction, increased pain, progression of chronic postoperative pain...

With the development of modern medicine, cases of anesthetic poisoning are no longer as common as before. However, handling and minimizing the risk of anesthetic poisoning is still one of the important knowledge that everyone needs to know.

In recent years, there have been occasional reports of anesthetic poisoning cases in which the patient may have received emergency treatment or, in more serious cases, may have died. So what is anesthetic poisoning and what should we understand about this complication?

Anesthesia is a common method of anesthesia, accounting for more than 50% of surgical cases. However, anesthetics, like any other drug, when introduced into the body, can cause allergies or anaphylactic shock, but this is extremely rare, especially for the Amino-Amid group that is commonly used today. In fact, anesthetic poisoning is the cause of complications in the operating room.

Spinal anesthesia for urethral dilatation is a method of inhibiting nerve conduction through the patient's spinal cord. This technique is performed by injecting anesthetic into the subarachnoid space. Spinal anesthesia for urethral dilatation is the best way to help patients reduce pain during urethral dilatation surgery.

Anesthesia is a common medical technique that aims to temporarily cause loss of sensation or consciousness so that the patient does not feel pain. Like many other medical techniques, side effects of anesthesia can lead to some complications for the patient.

When signs and symptoms of general anesthetic toxicity are detected, the initial treatment is to immediately stop the injection of the anesthetic. Then ask for help, as well as control the patient's airway. After completing the initial treatment measures, specific treatment must be immediately implemented.
