ANESTHETICS

The fact that pain can be elm
mated during a controlled period
of time is one of the wonderful
accomplishments of modern medi-
cine. The accomplishment is by
the use of anesthesia.
An anesthetic is any chemical
used to produce controlled uncon-
seriousness of a patient so that sur
gerry can be painless during an
operation.
Painless surgery was first per-
formed in 1916, just a little over
one hundred years ago. Before
that time operations were terrible
ordeals even though they might
accomplish their objective. The
shock of the operation was fire.
quently too much for the patient
and, because of the ordeal, many
refused to have the benefit of sur
gerry even though it was badly
needed.
But by using anesthesia, the

cessful operations on patients who
would have been poor risks for re-
covery in the old days. Today it
is hard for us to appreciate what
injury and operations meant to
our ancestors.
Broadly there are four types of
anesthetics with which pain can
be controlled: regional, spinal, in
halation and intravenous.
The use of regional anesthetic
can be illustrated by what the
doctor does for a finger infection
or to remove wart He injects
the anesthesia around the area TO
be operated upon and soon it is
asleep" just as your jaw goes to
sleep when the dentist injects re-
gional anesthesia. Any anesthetic
used this way is commonly called
a local"
A spinal anesthetic in general
blocks out that portion of the
body below the point where the
anesthetic is injected into the
spinal cord. The patient remains
entirel yconscious so far as being
able to think and converse, but the
lower part of the body is unable
to feel pain since all the nerve
groups there have been made 'un-
conscious"
Both the third and fourth types
of anesthetics, inhalation and in
travenous, put the patient COM
pletely to sleep because the brain
has been anesthetized. Inhalation
obviously is the process of breath
ing a gas or vapors, while intra-
venous means that a drug is in
jected into the blood stream, but
the effects are the same in either
case in attaining total lack of
consciousness.
In spite of the present-day per-
lection of anesthesia, experts say
that as yet the one, all-inclusive
perfect anesthetic has not yet been
developed. That perfect one would
be rapid acting, highly potent, and
woul dproduce great degree of
relaxation of the patients muscles,
while being entirely safe.
In other words, the patient
would be unconscious after only a
few whiffs, would be unconscious
for a longer period, and would be
completely relaxed during that
time. Experiments go on and on,
as medical research seeks the per-
feet one.
