General anaesthesia is a type of anaesthesia that induces a reversible state of unconsciousness, immobility, and analgesia. It is typically used for surgical procedures and involves administering intravenous or inhaled drugs to the patient. These drugs work by depressing the central nervous system, which leads to loss of consciousness and pain perception. During the procedure, the anaesthesiologist monitors the patient's vital signs and adjusts the dosage of drugs as necessary to maintain the desired level of anaesthesia. After the procedure is completed, the anaesthesiologist gradually reverses the effects of the drugs and monitors the patient until they are fully awake and stable.

Products For General Anaesthesia

There are various types of products used for general anaesthesia that can be classified into different categories based on their chemical properties and mode of action.

• Inhalational Anaesthetics: Anaesthetics are administered through inhalation and work by depressing the central nervous system. Examples include sevoflurane, desflurane, and nitrous oxide.
• Intravenous Anaesthetics: Another category is intravenous anaesthetics, which are administered as general anaesthesia injection. Examples include propofol, etomidate, and ketamine.
• Neuromuscular Blocking Agents: Additionally, neuromuscular blocking agents may be used to paralyze muscles and facilitate intubation during general anaesthesia. Examples include succinylcholine and rocuronium.
