Anaesthesia
What is Anaesthesia?
Anaesthesia is a crucial medical specialty that ensures patients undergo surgery or procedures safely and comfortably. It involves the use of medications to induce loss of sensation or consciousness, allowing surgeons to perform procedures without causing discomfort or pain.
When Do You Need Anaesthesia?
For Surgical Procedures
Anaesthesia is necessary for various surgeries to make sure you feel comfortable and don’t feel any pain during the operation. Whether it’s a small or a big surgery.
Types of Surgeries
- General Surgery: Like operations on your stomach, fixing hernias, or removing appendixes.
- Orthopaedic Surgery: Such as replacing joints, fixing broken bones, or operating on your spine.
- Heart Surgery: Including operations like bypasses, fixing valves, or opening blocked blood vessels.
Diagnostic and Treatment Procedures
Sometimes, anaesthesia is needed for tests or treatments that could be uncomfortable or need you to stay still, such as:
- Digestive Tract Tests: Like checking your stomach or intestines with a camera.
- Scans and X-rays: Including getting pictures inside your body to help doctors see what’s happening.
- Pain Treatments: Such as blocking nerves or giving medicine in your spine to help with pain.
Emergency Situations
In emergencies, like accidents or when someone suddenly needs surgery, anaesthesia is given quickly to help with pain and save lives.
Managing Pain
Anaesthesia isn’t just for surgery—it’s also important for managing pain before, during, and after procedures, making sure you’re as comfortable as possible during recovery.
