RECOVERY FROM
ANESTHESIA
Delayed awakening from anesthesia remains one of the biggest
challenges that involve an anesthesiologist. With the general
use of fast‑acting anesthetic agents, patients usually awaken
quickly in the postoperative period.
1. Immediate recovery
• This consists of return of consciousness, recovery of
protective airway reflexes, and resumption of motor
activity. This stage usually lasts for a short time.
2. Intermediate recovery
• During this stage, the patient regains his power of
coordination and the feeling of dizziness disappears.
This stage usually lasts for 1 h after short anesthetic.
Outpatient may be considered fit for discharge with a
responsible escort.

PHASES OF RECOVERY FROM ANESTHESIA
3. Long‑term recovery
• There is a full recovery of coordination and higher
intellectual function. It may last for hours or even days.

DELAYED AWAKENING OR EMERGENCE FROM GA :
DRUG FACTORS/PHARMACOLOGICAL CAUSES
Delayed awakening after GA is most commonly caused by
anesthetic overdose. Administration of an ideal dose to one
patient may have a very different effect on an apparently
similar patient.
Residual drug effects : A heavy premedication or the relative
overdose of general anesthetic agents may be the cause of
delayed awakening.
Potentiation by other drugs : Prior ingestion of opioids & BZDs
or nonanesthetic drugs that affect cognitive function such as
tranquilizers, antihypertensives, anticholinergics, clonidine,
antihistamines, penicillin‑derived antibiotics, amphotericin B,
immunosuppressants, lidocaine, & alcohol will potentiate the
CNS depressant effects of anesthetic drugs & delay
emergence from anesthesia.

DELAYED AWAKENING OR EMERGENCE FROM GA :
DRUG FACTORS/PHARMACOLOGICAL CAUSES
Drug interactions :
MAOIs / SSRIs may experience severe drug interactions
with IV agents that can result in hyper/ hypotension &
postoperative coma or a full‑blown serotonergic syndrome.
A large number of pharmacological interactions with NMBA
such as aminoglycosides, diuretics, calcium channel
antagonists, lithium, polymyxin B, echothiophate, oral
contraceptives, LAs etc., will prolong neuromuscular block
(NMB).
Neurotoxic effect of chemotherapeutic drugs such as
l‑asparaginase & vincristine can also produce CNS
depression.

BENZODIAZEPINES
They potentiate CNS depressant effects of
anesthetic drugs and may delay emergence from
anesthesia.
Benzodiazepines combined with high‑dose opioids
can produce respiratory depression, hypercapnia,
and coma.
Midazolam is metabolized by the same CYP450 isoenzymes as alfentanil such
that co‑administration prolongs the action of both drugs. Midazolam is
biotransformed to alpha hydroxyl midazolam, which have clinical potency 20–
30% of midazolam & cause profound sedation in patients with renal
impairment.
Diazepam forms two active metabolites,
oxazepam and desmethyl diazepam, that prolong
its effect.

NEUROMUSCULAR BLOCKERS
Residual NMB results in paralysis that is indistinguishable
from delayed awakening though the patient is conscious &
1 aware. This occurs secondary to absolute or relative overdose
or incomplete reversal of nondepolarizing muscle relaxants or
in a patient with suxamethonium apnea.
Inability to maintain head lift for 5 s in a patient
indicates residual NMB of >30% of receptors. The patient
2 may become distressed or agitated, typically twitchy
movements of partial reversal may also be seen.

ISSUES OF
AMINOPHYLLINE.....
Aminophylline is a derivative of methylxanthine. Mx’s
antagonise adenosine (a nonselective
adenosine receptor antagonist) which is a NT in
the adenosinergic neuromodulater system in the
CNS.1
Aminophylline has excitatory effects on neuronal
activity, and stimulates the CNS to induce vigilance
and increase the time spent awake.2
Turan et al (2004) hypothesize that modulation of the
adenosine function may be one of the mechanisms
of action for some anesthetic drugs.1
The mechanism for the antihypnotic effect of
aminophylline is thought to be suppression of central
adenosine receptors.3

OF PDE
• Phosphodiesterase is

intracellular cAMP
(cyclic adenosine
monophosphate).2

UNDERSTANDING OF ADENOSINE
• Adenosine is present in all cells and its receptors are
distributed in all brain cells.1
• Change in adenosine function may be one of the
mechanisms of action for some anesthetics.1
• Four subtypes of adenosine receptors are expressed in the
CNS : A1, A2A, A2B and A3. Several lines of evidence
indicate that both A1R and A2AR subtypes promote sleep.
A1 and A2A receptors modulate cortical ACh release,
• The mechanism
behavioral arousal,for the and antihypnotic
sleep. 1 effect of aminophylline
is thought to be suppression of adenosine receptors in the
CNS. 2

• The endogenous somnogen PGD2 (green) is produced by L-PGDS, circulates
within the CSF, stimulates DP1R (light blue) on the ventral surface from the
basal forebrain to the hypothalamus, and increases the level of extracellular
adenosine.
• Adenosine (purple) diffuses into the brain parenchyma as the secondary
somnogen, inhibits arousal neurons in the basal forebrain (orange area) and
TMN (red area) via A1R (blue lines), and activates sleep–active VLPO neurons
(blue area) via A2AR (red arrows) to induce sleep.
• The flip–flop switch of sleep–wakefulness regulation between the VLPO and
TMN is stabilized by their OX/Hcrt mediated activation and adenosine A1R-
mediated suppression.

DOES AMINOPHYLLINE REVERSE NMBA ?
It had been reported to enhance diaphragmatic contractility and
enhance neurotransmitter release at the motor nerve terminals in
animals. So, it has been used recently in anesthesia to antagonize
the neuromuscular blocking effect of non-depolarizing
neuromuscular blockers. It had been reported that theophylline
antagonizes the effect of pancuronium.
