Q

DESIRABLE PROPERTIES OF LOCAL ANESTHETICS [11]

A

(1) Non-irritating to tissues

Q

FACTORS INVOLVED IN THE ACTION OF LOCAL ANESTHETICS [2]

A

(1) Diffusion of the local anesthetics through the nerve sheath

(2) Binding of the local anesthetic at receptor sites at the nerve membrane

Q

The binding site is inside the channels and drugs have to cross the _____.

A

lipid-rich membrane

Q

conversion of the water-soluble part of the anesthetic compound into the fat-soluble form

A

DEPROTONATION

Q

→ tissue alkalinity (7.3 to 7.4) needed
→ allows anesthetic solution to penetrate the lipid-rich membrane

A

DEPROTONATION

Q

T/ F

DEPROTONATION should be alkaline

A

T

Q

T/ F

DEPROTONATION.

As it passes through the nerve membrane, it has to be the lipophilic part . To bind with the receptor sites, it must be the _______ part. Receptor sites close the sodium channels (spiky sites)–an action of nerve conductio

A

T, hydrophilic

Q

DEPROTONATION.

A

100 molecules of anesthesia 75% RNH : 25% of RN
↓
Deprotonation of RNH part
↓
Diffuses through nerve membrane

↓
Re-equilibration of RNH to bind at receptor sites
↓
Suppressed nerve conduction

Q

PROPOSED SEQUENCE FOR MECHANISM OF ACTION OF ANESTHESIA [7]

A

(1) Calcium ions at phospholipid receptor sites are displaced
(2) Local anesthetic molecule binds at receptor sites
(3) Na channels are blocked
(4) Depressed/decrease depolarization
(5) Firing potential is not reached
(6) Propagated action potential does not develop
(7) Block of nerve conduction
