Expert anesthesiologists and physiologists here attack the basic problem of anesthetic action on three fronts: the molecular and membrane basis of anesthesia, respiratory effects, and cardiac/circulatory effects. Noteworthy topics of discussion include volatile anesthetics and membrane excitability, the mechanics of respiration, the role of the lung wall, cardiopulmonary effects of specific anesthetic types, and the effects of intravenous agents and opioids.
