Q

What part of the anesthesia is the active part?

A
  • Local anesthesia dissociated into ionized and non ionized
  • the non ionized form enters the cell (lipophillic)
  • This dissociates again
  • the ionoized INTRACELLULAR form is the active anesthesia

28
Q

Anesthesia absorption sites? (3)

A
  • Not through healthy skin
  • Yes through mucous membranes
  • Parenteral absorption depends
29
Q

Parenteral absorption of anesthesia depends on…? (4)

A
  • Injection site
  • Relationship between blood concentration and doses
  • Physical and chemical features
  • Vasoconstrictor
30
Q

Parenteral absorption of anesthesia depends on injection site because…

A

Absorption is higher if there is vasodilatation with less adipose tissue

31
Q

Parenteral absorption of anesthesia depends on Direct relationship between blood concentration and doses because..

A

The more doses = higher blood concentration

32
Q
