Abstract
Intravenous anesthesia plays a crucial role in modern medical practice, offering rapid and precise control over the depth of anesthesia during surgical procedures and procedural sedation. This research provides a comprehensive overview of the various types of intravenous anesthetics currently available, including their pharmacological mechanisms of action, clinical applications, safety profiles, and considerations for anesthesia management. From widely used agents such as propofol and ketamine to specialized compounds like dexmedetomidine and barbiturates, each intravenous anesthetic offers unique advantages and considerations for anesthesia providers. Understanding the diverse landscape of intravenous anesthetics is essential for optimizing anesthesia management strategies, enhancing patient safety, and improving perioperative outcomes.
