Beschreibung

More than one drug is administered as part of a multimodal and balanced approach to a patient’s anaesthesia experience. These all have varying physiological effects including bradycardia, hypotension, muscle rigidity and even excitement. By understanding where and how these anaesthesia drugs work, we can predict and troubleshoot any negative effects they have on the body.

In this webinar, we will discuss the anaesthesia triad and the stages of anaesthesia our patients move through as well as common anaesthesia drugs used in premedication, those that provide analgesia such as opioids and NMDA antagonists, benzodiazepines and induction drugs, non-steroidal antiinflammatories and local anaesthetics.
