Pain signal can be modified in the spinal cord or brain by various neurotransmitters Modulation
Recognition/interpretation of pain impulse at conscious level Perception
Patient leaves normal state of consciousness and Enters an unconscious state induction
State of controlled & reversible unconsciousness general anesthesia
Rapidly administer a calculated dose as one smooth unit Bolus induction
