1. Sleep is an active process generated in the brain.
2. Structures in the brainstem, diencephalon, and basal forebrain control the sleep-wake cycle and are directly modulated by general anesthetics.
3. Sleep and anesthesia are similar states with distinct traits, with each satisfying neurobiologic features of the other.
4. Distinct memory functions are subserved by distinct neural structures.
5. Limbic system structures such as the hippocampus and amygdala are critical for memory and play a role in anesthetic-induced amnesia.
6. Although brainstem, diencephalon, and basal forebrain structures generate wakefulness, the contents of consciousness are thought to be generated by the cortex.
7. Multiple neural correlates of consciousness are thought to be the targets of general anesthetics.
8. Consciousness and subsequent explicit recall of intraoperative events—known as “awareness during general anesthesia”—occur in 1 to 2 cases per 1000.
9. Monitoring anesthetic depth has evolved to electroencephalographic methods, although limitations still exist. |
