Surgical stress triggers harmful neuroendocrine and inflammatory responses. General anesthesia aims to mitigate these effects using various drugs and techniques like preemptive analgesia to improve patient outcomes.

Area of Science:

  • Anesthesiology
  • Surgical Stress Response
  • Neuroendocrinology

Context:

  • Surgical injury induces a complex stress response involving neuroendocrine, hemodynamic, metabolic, and inflammatory changes.
  • Excessive stress responses can elevate postoperative morbidity and mortality.
  • General anesthesia's critical role is protecting patients from these noxious stress components.

Purpose:

  • To review anesthetic agents and associated drugs for mitigating the surgical stress response.
  • To explore the efficacy of preemptive analgesia and computer-guided total intravenous anesthesia in attenuating sympathoadrenal responses.

Summary:

  • The surgical stress response encompasses neuroendocrine, hemodynamic, metabolic, and inflammatory changes.
  • Anesthetic drugs including sedative/hypnotics, opioids, alpha-2 adrenergic agonists, NSAIDs, and local anesthetics are reviewed for their role in managing this response.

  • Preemptive analgesia and advanced anesthesia techniques may effectively reduce central and peripheral sensitization and the sympathoadrenal response to surgery.

    • Impact:

    • Optimizing anesthetic management can reduce postoperative complications and improve patient survival.
    • Understanding and controlling the surgical stress response is crucial for enhancing patient safety and recovery.
    • This review provides a comprehensive overview for clinicians managing surgical stress.
