What Does END Stand For?
END stands for Equivalent Narcotic Depth
END, or Equivalent Narcotic Depth, is a metric used to evaluate the potency and effects of anesthetic agents in comparison to standard narcotics. It provides a standardized framework for assessing the depth of anesthesia required for different clinical procedures, enabling healthcare professionals to make informed decisions regarding the selection and dosage of anesthetic drugs. By using END, practitioners can optimize patient safety and comfort during surgical interventions.
