I don't think so. It is much more likely that the stroke was going to happen anyway. There are many causes of strokes, and remember too that most people having surgery aren't very well, and are having surgery to try to make them better. If someone isn't well or has been seriously injured, problems such as strokes or heart attacks are more likely to happen. Under anaesthetic, the anaesthetist continually monitors the patient's blood pressure and if it is too high or too low, they administer medication to stabilise it. An anaesthetic is not just one drug. They first give you a drug to knock you out, and then they give you other drugs to keep you under anaesthetic. They correct any physical reactions that are not normal using drips or drugs. The patient is connected to monitors which the anaesthetist and the anaesthetic nurse concentrate on very attentively. At times the anaesthetist will decide that the patient isn't coping with surgery and they will tell the surgeon to stop the procedure and the patient then usually goes to Intensive Care until they are strong enough to be taken back to the operating theatre. If a patient had a stroke in theatre, the anaesthetist would notice straight away, and may advise that the patient should be taken to ICU. But the anaesthetic itself is very unlikely to cause the stroke.
Not if it's going into a patient's mouth.
Be patient
Doctors are never allowed to reveal medical information about a patient without said patient's consent, regardless of what legal proceedings are going on. Doctor-patient confidentiality is legally binding, and if they break it then you can sue them for that too. Of course, if the medical information is evidence in the law suit it will need to be revealed to the lawyers/judge/jury/etc.
Comb binding supplies can be bought in various do-it-yourself stores as well as some bookstores. One should try going to stores such as Costco or the Swedish Bokia. If these stores aren't available, one should buy the supplies from eBay.
Yes. You should calmly explain to them what you are going to do and try to reassure them that you know what you are doing and that help is on the way.
Be patient and wait for a safe opportunity to pass.
The first thing is to make the patient remain on the floor. Then, call for assistance. Before going further, assess the extent of any injury, especially a possible fractured pelvis. Only then should the patient be helped to slowly stand, or placed onto a stretcher, or into a wheelchair.

its the left side.
Yes, they can, but if they are going to be adjusted you should (pretty much have to) take them to a "certified binding mechanic." The people at your local ski shop will be able to adjust them.
I think you are thinking of a "house visit". Such as when a doctor comes to a patient's house, instead of the patient going to the doctor. Hope this helps!
