- REMOVE VISIBLE DEBRIS AND DEVITALISED TISSUE
- REMOVE DRY CRUSTY EXUDATES
PURPOSE OF USING PRE-ANESTHETIC AGENTS
- ALLAY APPREHENSION AND AID RESTRAINT
- EASE INDUCTION OF ANESTHESIA AND RECOVERY
- ACT AS PHARMACOLOGIC, ADJUNCTS TO THE GENERAL ANESTHETICS
- COUNTER THE SIDE EFFECTS AND REFLEX RESPONSES EVOKED BY SOME ANESTHETIC AGENTS
- MINIMIZE SECRETIONS
TWO DIFFERENT PROCESSES OF HEMOSTASIS
- PRIMARY HEMOSTASIS
- SECONDARY HEMOSTASIS
CONTRA-INDICATIONS IN USING LOCAL ANALGESIA
