Post-anesthesia hysteria, often characterized by agitation or confusion, can be caused by factors such as the effects of anesthetic drugs, individual sensitivity, or pre-existing anxiety disorders. It may also occur due to the disorientation following surgery or the effects of pain medications. To minimize its occurrence, clinicians can use shorter-acting anesthetics, provide a calm recovery environment, and ensure effective communication before and after the procedure to help alleviate anxiety. Additionally, preoperative assessments can identify patients at higher risk for post-anesthesia agitation.

How long does anesthesia last after an endoscopic?

The duration of anesthesia after an endoscopic procedure typically lasts a few hours, depending on the type of anesthesia used. For sedation, patients may feel drowsy for several hours post-procedure, while general anesthesia may take longer for full recovery. It's important for patients to have a responsible adult accompany them home, as their coordination and judgment may be affected. Always follow your healthcare provider's specific post-operative instructions regarding recovery time.


What is a anesthesiologist schedule like?

The anesthesia provider is responsible for keeping the patient anesthetized during surgery and vigilantly monitoring their vital signs, ABCs (airway, breathing, circulation) while the patient is under anesthesia or sedation. They monitor fluid input and output; placing IVs or central lines as necessary to deliver IV fluids, drugs, or blood or blood products during surgery. General anesthesia requires the anesthesia provider to intubate the patient, which is to place a breathing tube through the mouth into the trachea, or "windpipe," which remains in place during surgery. Surgery can be done with general anesthesia, regional anesthesia (spinals, epidurals, or peripheral nerve blocks), or monitored anesthesia care (MAC), which was formerly known as "local [anesthesia] with sedation." The anesthesia provider is responsible for the patient's care during the initial post-operative period in the recovery room. They determine when the patient is ready for extubation (removal of the breathing tube), which is usually -- but not always -- done in the operating room after the patient is awakened from general anesthesia, but before they go to the recovery room (or "PACU," post-anesthesia care unit).
