Lecture 1/17/23
Independent ventilatory function often impaires what 3 things
Maintain patent airway
Positive pressure ventilation
Cardiovascular support
Slide 3
What type of anesthesia:
* Insensibility caused by interrupting the sensory nerve conduction of a particular region of the body
* Level of consciousness is unchanged (unless sedatives are used)
* Ventilatory/airway protection is maintained
Regional Anesthesia
Slide 4
Describe Regional Anesthesia
- Insensibility caused by interrupting the sensory nerve conduction of a particular region of the body
- Level of consciousness is unchanged (unless sedatives are used)
- Ventilatory/airway protection is maintained
