| subarachnoid anaesthesia | A form of regional anaesthesia that involves the injection of an anaesthetic into the epidural space (in the spinal canal), at predetermined location along the spine, to produce anaesthesia in all body regions that are supplied by nerves that arise below the anatomic region of the block. Often used for obstetrical procedures. Origin: Gr. Aisthesis = sensation (27 Sep 1997) |

| subarachnoid | <anatomy> The layer of tissue situated or occurring between the arachnoid and the pia mater. (11 Nov 1997) |
|---|---|
| subarachnoid cavity | The space between the arachnoidea and pia mater, traversed by delicate fibrous trabeculae and filled with cerebrospinal fluid. Since the pia mater immediately adheres to the surface of the brain and spinal cord, the space is greatly widened wherever the brain surface exhibits a deep depression (for example, between the cerebellum and medulla); such widenings are called cisternae. The large blood vessels supplying the brain and spinal cord lie in the subarachnoid space. Synonym: cavum subarachnoideum, subarachnoid cavity. (05 Mar 2000) |
| subarachnoid haemorrhage | <neurology> A acute condition involving sudden haemorrhage into the space between the arachnoid membrane and the pia mater (adjacent to the brain). Often secondary to a head injury or a blood vessel defect known as an aneurysm. The subarachnoid space also contains the cerebrospinal fluid. (11 Nov 1997) |

| acupuncture anaesthesia | Insertion of acupuncture needles at specific points in the body to block the afferent nerve impulses from reaching the brain, thus producing the loss of sensation of pain. The technique is used in performing surgery. (12 Dec 1998) |
| ambulatory anaesthesia | Anaesthesia provided on an outpatient basis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anaesthesia | <anaesthetics, neurology> The loss of feeling or sensation. Although the term is used for loss of tactile sensibility or of any of the other senses, it is applied especially to loss of the sensation of pain, as it is induced to permit performance of surgery or other painful procedures. Origin: Gr. Aisthesis = sensation (13 Nov 1997) |
| anaesthesia adjuvants | Agents that are administered in association with anaesthetics to increase effectiveness, improve delivery, or decrease required dosage. (12 Dec 1998) |
| anaesthesia, caudal | Epidural anaesthesia administered via the sacral canal. (12 Dec 1998) |
| anaesthesia, closed-circuit | Inhalation anaesthesia where the gases exhaled by the patient are rebreathed as some carbon dioxide is simultaneously removed and anaesthetic gas and oxygen are added so that no anaesthetic escapes into the room. Closed-circuit anaesthesia is used especially with explosive anaesthetics to prevent fires where electrical sparking from instruments is possible. (12 Dec 1998) |
| anaesthesia department, hospital | Hospital department responsible for the administration of functions and activities pertaining to the delivery of anaesthetics. (12 Dec 1998) |
| anaesthesia dolorosa | Severe spontaneous pain occurring in an anaesthetic area. Synonym: painful anaesthesia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anaesthesia, inhalation | Anaesthesia caused by the breathing of anaesthetic gases or vapors or by insufflating anaesthetic gases or vapors into the respiratory tract. (12 Dec 1998) |
| anaesthesia, local | Anaesthesia confined to one part of the body. Infiltration anaesthesia produces local anaesthesia by deposition of a local anaesthesia solution in the area of small, terminal nerve endings. (12 Dec 1998) |
| anaesthesia machine | Equipment used for inhalation anaesthesia, including flowmeters, vaporisers, and sources of compressed gases, but not including the anaesthetic circuit or mechanisms for elimination of carbon dioxide. (05 Mar 2000) |
