Is Anesthesia Safe During Surgery?
  • During any type of medical procedure, especially
    in surgery, the patient is given anesthesia so
    that the patient does not feel any kind of pain
    or discomfort and the medical procedure is
    completed smoothly. So, what is anesthesia after
    all? A medicine that is used to numb a part of
    the body during any kind of examination or
    operation of the patient to experience no
    discomfort is called Anesthesia. The literal
    meaning of anesthesia is mental and physical
    unconsciousness.
  • How is Anesthesia given?
  • Some medicines are used to make the patient
    experience less or no pain during the patient's
    surgery or any such medical procedure in which
    stitches are needed which is referred as
    anesthesia. Anesthesia is in the form of gas or
    vapor which is given to the patient through
    injection or is inhaled.

Who can give anesthesia?
  • It is not that any doctor can start the surgery
    by giving anesthesia before the surgery.
  • There is a complete study of anesthesiology.
    There are trained professionals who are called
    anesthesiologists and under their supervision,
    anesthesia is given to the patient. The
    anesthesiologist, keeping in mind the patient's
    medical condition and medical history, decides
    which anesthesia would be appropriate for the
    patient. The patient is under the supervision of
    an anesthesiologist until the patient is given
    anesthesia before surgery or medical procedure
    and till the patient regains consciousness.

Types of Anesthesia
  • The types of anesthesia are - local anesthesia
    and general anesthesia.
  • 1. Local anesthesia is used in minor surgery or
    any general medical procedure in which only one
    part of the patient's body is numbed. During
    this, the patient remains fully conscious.
  • 2. In general anesthesia, the patient is
    completely sedated during the treatment process.
    General anesthesia is used during major and
    serious surgeries.Apart from these two,
    regional anesthetic, epidural anesthetic, spine
    anesthetic, and sedation are also different types
    of anesthesia. In some cases, different types of
    anesthesia can also be used by mixing them
    together. After the operation, a regional
    anesthetic can sometimes be given to the patient
    in combination with a general anesthetic or with
    sedation to relieve the patient of pain.
    Anesthesiologists decide which anesthetic is
    right for the patient.
