Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What are the different types of anaesthesia used in surgery?
There are four main types of anaesthesia: general anaesthesia (induces unconsciousness), regional anaesthesia (numbs a larger area, such as spinal or epidural), local anaesthesia (numbs a small area), and sedation (relaxes the patient while maintaining awareness).
Is anaesthesia safe for all patients?
Yes, anaesthesia is generally safe when administered by a qualified anaesthesiologist. A pre-anaesthesia assessment helps identify any risks based on the patient’s medical history and current health status.
How long does it take to recover from anaesthesia?
Recovery time depends on the type of anaesthesia used. Local anaesthesia wears off within hours, while general anaesthesia may take a few hours to a full day for complete recovery. Some patients may experience temporary drowsiness or nausea.
What precautions should I take before undergoing anaesthesia?
Patients should follow fasting instructions, inform the doctor about medications and allergies, and avoid alcohol or smoking before surgery. The anaesthesiologist will provide detailed pre-procedure guidelines.
Can I wake up during surgery under general anaesthesia?
No, under properly administered general anaesthesia, patients remain completely unconscious. Modern monitoring techniques ensure the correct dosage is maintained throughout the procedure.
