2. 2 Advantages of Local Anesthesia The patient is conscious during surgery.
Smooth postoperative course.
Patient awake and maintains his own airway.
Less pain needs less narcotics, lighter anesthesia in general cases.
Less nursing care after procedures, less admissions.
Less expensive
3. 3 Disadvantages of Local Anesthesia The patient may prefer to be asleep
Specialized skill necessary.
Some blocks require up to 30 minutes to be fully effective.
Analgesia may not always be totally effective, and general anesthesia may be required anyway.
4. 4 Disadvantages of Local Anesthesia Generalized toxicity may occur if local anesthetic drugs are given intravenously by mistake or an overdose is given.
Widespread sympathetic blockade can result in hypotension.
There is a small but definite incidence of prolonged nerve damage.
