Anesthesia meaningAnesthesia, or anaesthesia from Greek -, an-, "without";
and, aisthsis, "sensation"), meant the condition of havingsensation (including the feeling of pain) blocked or
temporarily taken away & allows patients to undergosurgery and other procedures without pain they wouldotherwise experience.
The word was coined by Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr. in1846. Another definition is a "reversible lack of awareness,"whether this is a total lack of awareness (e.g. a general
anesthetic) or a lack of awareness of a part of the bodysuch as a spinal anesthetic or another nerve block wouldcause.

Hist ry Herbal derivatives
The first anesthesia (a herbal remedy) was administered
in prehistory. Opium poppy capsules were collected in
4200 BC
In the Americas coca was also an important anestheticused
Alcohol was also used,
narcotic-soaked sponges.
Non-pharmacological methodsHypnotism have a long historyof use as anesthetic
techniques.
Chilling tissue (e.g. with ice) can temporarilycause nerve
fibers (axons) to stop conducting sensation.

TYPES OF ANESTHESIA local anesthesia: specific location of the body is
numbed, such as the handminor procedures. You may
stay awake during the procedure, regional anesthesia :numbs a larger area of the body
general anesthesia:describes unconsciousness and lack
of any awareness or sensation you are completely
unaware and do not feel pain during the surgery

The anaesthetic machine (or anesthesia machine in America)
is used by anesthesiologists and Nurse anesthetists to support
the administration of anaesthesia.
The most common type of anaesthetic machine in use in the
developed world is the continuous-flow anaesthetic machine,
which is designed to provide an accurate and continuous supply
of medical gases (such as oxygen and nitrous oxide), mixed with
an accurate concentration of anaesthetic vapour (such as
isoflurane), and deliver this to the patient at a safe pressure andflow.
Modern machines incorporate a ventilator, suction unit, and
patient-monitoring devices.

A modern machine typically includes the following
components:
reserve gas cylinders of oxygen, air, and nitrous oxide attached pressure gauges, regulators and 'pop-off' valves, to protect the
machine components and patient from high-pressure gases .
flow meters (rotameters) for oxygen, air, and nitrous oxide, whichare used by the anaesthesiologist to provide accurate mixtures ofmedical gases to the patient. Flow meters are typicallypneumatic,but increasinglyelectromagnetic digital flow meters are being used.
one or more anaesthetic vaporisers to accurately add volatileanaesthetics to the fresh gas flow
aventilator physiological monitors to monitor the patient's heart rate, ECG,non-invasive blood pressure and oxygen saturation (additionalmonitors are generally available to monitor end-tidal CO2,temperature, arterial blood pressure central venous pressure, etc.).
In addition, the composition of the gases delivered to the patient(and breathed out) is monitored continuously.

Brachytherapyy Brachytherapy( Greekword brachy, means "short-
distance"),
yinternal radiotherapy, sealed sourceradiotherapy, curietherapyor endocurietherapy,
y Is a form ofradiotherapywhere a radiationsource(Is0tope) is placed inside or next to the area
requiring treatment.

Historyy Brachytherapydates back to 1901 when Pierre Curie
suggested to Henri-AlexandreDanlos that a
radioactive source could be inserted into a tumour.Itwas found that the radiation caused the tumour toshrink.

Procedurey This technique involves the deliveryof radiation by
implantation of solid radioactive isotopes, into tissues.
Examples include implantation of Iridium-192 wireinto tumours,and Iodine-125 seed implantation. Theseradioactive implants mainlyemit beta-particles(electrons). .

USEy Brachytherapyis commonlyused as an effective
treatment for cervical, prostate, breast,and skin cancer
and can also be used to treat tumours in manyotherbodysites.
y Brachytherapycan be used alone or in combinationwith other therapies such as surgery, External Beam
Radiotherapy(EB
RT) and chemotherapy.

key featurey Brachytherapyis that the irradiation onlyaffects a very
localized area around the radiation sources.
y
In addition, if the patient moves or if there is anymovement of the tumour within the bodyduringtreatment, the radiation sources retain their correctposition in relation to the tumour.
y
A course of brachytherapycan be completed in lesstime than other radiotherapytechniques
y Is associated with a low risk of serious adverse sideeffects.

Side effects ofradiotherapyy the side effects of radiotherapyare specific to the sites that
are being treated & increases with increasing duration oftreatment, appear 14 days after commencement oftreatment and depend on dose, site and volume oftreatment.
y
Some of these include:y Acute nausea and vomiting;y Myelosuppression;y Inflammatoryresponses in irradiated tissues (e.g.
mucositis, cystitis, proctitis);yDiarrhoea;
y Lethargy
