Anesthesia:
A state of unconsciousness produced by a process of
controlled reversible drug-induced intoxication of the central
nervous system

Analgesia : it is state which has temporarily abolishes awareness
of pain
Narcosis: It sleep like action due to moderate depression of CNS,
thus all anesthetic agent are narcotic but not many narcotic are
anesthetic agents
Hypnosis : Mild depressions of CNS, a state which produce sleep,
and unconsciousness
Sedative : is a narcotic agent which is used to calm a nervous,
vicious or excited animals. `
Pain?
• An unpleasant sensory and
emotional experience associated
with actual or potential tissue
damage, or described in terms of
such damage.”
• ”Pain is always subjective

Balance Anesthesia: A state of analgesia, muscle relaxant and
Narcosis usually produce by combination more than one drugs
Narcosis
Analgesia
Muscle Relaxant

General considerations in the selections of Anesthetic
1- Animals
2- Nature of operation
Inspection before anaesthesia
• Check animals before starting
• Do not anaesthetise sick
animals, they are unsuitable
• Animal should be fasting
How to fast before anaesthesia ?
• Take away food - not water
• the smaller species, the faster metabolism,
the shorter fasting

Introduction to general anesthesia:
G. A is a state of unconsciousness produced by a process of
controlled reversible intoxication of central nervous system
An anesthetic agent may be defined as a substance which
produce loss of consciousness in controllable matter.
General anesthesia may be
Volatile or gaseous substances
Introduce upper respiratory
Water-soluble non-volatile compound
Blood
Brain
i.v., i.m, orally, per rectum,
intraperitoneal,
Elimination of inhalation anesthetics
