Course overview

This course examines general anesthesia, focusing on the deliberate pharmacologic management that suppresses consciousness, sensation, and reflexes to support surgical procedures. Learners will explore the mechanisms of various anesthetic agents such as intravenous, inhalational, sedative, opioid, and neuromuscular blocking drugs and their impact on the central nervous system, neural connectivity, and overall physiological stability. This course bridges perioperative monitoring, airway management, and complex pharmacokinetic principles with anesthesia practice across preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative settings.
