Local anesthetics block voltage-gated Na+ channels.
Local anesthetics block voltage-gated Na+ channels. General anesthetics are thought to activate chemically Cl- gated channels, thereby rendering the nervous system quiescent while surgery is performed.
What specific process do anesthetics impair, and how does this interfere with nerve impulse transmission?
