ANESTHESIA OVERVIEW
STAGES OF GENERAL ANESTHESIA
STAGE 1 (Amnesia): From induction of anesthesia to loss of
conciousness (loss of eyelid reflex). Pain perception threshold is
not lowered.
ANESTHESIA OVERVIEW
STAGES OF GENERAL ANESTHESIA
STAGE 2 (Delirium/Excitement): Characterized by uninhibited
excitation. Pupils are dilated and eyes divergent. Agitation,
delirium, irregular respiration, and breatholding are commonly seen.
Potentially dangerous responses can occur during this stage
including vomiting, laryngospasm, HTN, tachycardia, and uncontrolled
movement.
ANESTHESIA OVERVIEW
STAGES OF GENERAL ANESTHESIA
STAGE 3 (Surgical Anesthesia): Central gaze,constricted pupils,
and regular respirations. Target depth of anesthesia is sufficient
when painful stimulation does not elicit somatic reflexes or
deleterious autonomic reflexes.

STAGES OF GENERAL ANESTHESIA
STAGE 3
Plane 1 From the return of regular respirations to the cessation
of REM.

Plane 2 The Surgical Plane
From the cessation of REM to the onset of paresis of the
intercostal muscles.

STAGE 4 (Impending Death/Overdose): Onset of apnea,
dilated and nonreactive pupils, and hypotension to complete circulatory
failure.
