Sleep and general anesthesia [PDF]

Canadian Journal of Anesthesia/Journal canadien d'anesthésie, 2010
The mechanisms through which general anesthetics cause reversible loss of consciousness are characterized poorly. In this review, we examine the evidence that anesthetic-induced loss of consciousness may be caused by actions on the neuronal pathways that produce natural sleep.It is clear that many general anesthetics produce effects in the brain ...

Radical pairs may play a role in xenon-induced general anesthesia [PDF]

Sci Rep 11, 6287 (2021), 2020
Understanding the mechanisms underlying general anesthesia would be a key step towards understanding consciousness. The process of xenon-induced general anesthesia has been shown to involve electron transfer, and the potency of xenon as a general anesthetic exhibits isotopic dependence. We propose that these observations can be explained by a mechanism

Recovery of consciousness and cognition after general anesthesia in humans

bioRxiv, 2020
Understanding how consciousness and cognitive function return after a major perturbation is important clinically and neurobiologically. To address this question, we conducted a three-center study of 30 healthy humans receiving general anesthesia at ...
