Administration of general anesthetics decreases the presynaptic Ca2+ entry.
Administration of general anesthetics decreases the presynaptic Ca2+ entry. Correct Answer True
Administration of general anesthetics decreases the presynaptic Ca2+ entry, thus decreases the neurotransmitter release. It increases postsynaptic Cl– entry and also increases postsynaptic K+ leakage from the cell. Local anesthetics help block conduction. It decreases the axonal Na+ entry thus prevents action potential propagation.
