Intravenous intravenous anesthetics may be used only to induce anesthesia for minor surgical procedures but are more commonly used for induction only. It may cause apnea and low blood pressure and therefore appropriate recovery means should be available. It is prohibited to use it if the anesthetist is not sure of his ability to maintain an airway. Before attempting an intubation, you should give a muscle relaxant. The requirements vary widely; a smaller dose is recommended in the case of the elderly, frail patients or those with hypoglycaemia.
Intravenous intravenous injection using rapid thiopental is usually not stimulated. Anesthesia lasts for 4-7 minutes; large or repeated doses cause severe breathing and delay recovery.
The anesthesia continues with ketamine for up to 15 minutes after a single intravenous injection and is characterized by depth of sedation. It can be used as a single agent in micro-diagnostic and surgical interventions. Non-anesthetic concentrations of ketamine can be used for analgesia in short-term painful procedures such as dressing burns, therapeutic radiation procedures, bone marrow sampling and minor orthopedic procedures.
Recovery from ketamine anesthesia is associated with a severe risk of hallucinations and other reactions to awakening. Ketamine is especially valuable in children, who are thought to have less hallucinations.
