Anaesthetists play a vital role in the pain relief and total care of the surgical patient before, during, and after surgery. Before an operation, a patient will meet with the anaesthesiologist for an evaluation. The Anaesthetists will make a plan for the operation that takes into account the individual needs of the patient.
At Be Well, the Anaesthesiology department is involved right from pre-operative anaesthetic evaluation, creating an anaesthesia plan for the operation to maintaining a comfortable state for the patients after the surgery. Local anaesthetics and general anaesthetics are two commonly used types of anaesthetics. General anaesthesia is patient goes to sleep while the operation lasts and regional anaesthesia is where the only particular region of the body is induced with analgesia.
