CRNAs are nurses who administer anesthesia.

As a general rule, you should not eat or drink anything after midnight before your surgery. Under some circumstances, you may be given permission by your anesthesiologist to drink clear liquids up to a few hours before your anesthesia.

Anesthetics first got their use with: 1. Natural plants and herbs 2. Alcohol In the B.C.'s there were already anesthetics in use. They would get the subject high or drunk, and then perform the said operation. Mainly, anesthetics were not used until the later 1800's, but if you want to get specific, we could say around the dawn of the Egyptians and the dawn of Native Americans.

It all depends on your systems. After a couple of days you should be ok.

Massage it. Get blood flow moving in that area. Sounds easy, but takes a while. And you might look silly doing it.

Yes, or at least, I do. I had gas at the dentist when I was a child, perhaps five times, and I dreamed every time. The dreams I had were different in style to normal dreams, they were more vivid and I remembered them more easily. Once I decided beforehand to try to control my dream, and I was successful (this is known as "lucid dreaming"). I have had much less success during "normal" dreams. Curiously, under general anaesthetic I lose track of time; when I awake I am not aware of how much time has passed (it seems like less than a minute). Normally I can tell the time to within half an hour when I wake up.

Anesthetic gas is a gas that will cause temporary loss of feeling and consciousness. Anesthetic gas is also a non-flammable gas.

Because it is a substance that has extreme physical hazards cognisance of which must always be a priority when planning even the simplest of procedures and the use of best laboratory practice at all times is paramount in ensuring its safe use.

Yes, eyelid surgery is done with general anesthesia. This is to make sure that your eyes lids are completely immobile during the process. The process is fairly quick and very common in Asian countries.

If not, they should, because circumcision is EXTREMELY painful.

The problem is that infants are in a great deal of danger when under general anaesthetic and an injected pain block is also terribly pain full so they are usually done with no anesthetic. this also saves he doctor money and make the op less expensive for the idiots that ordered it.

There are a few topical anaesthetics available at pharmacies, such as anbesol for toothaches, or some others for minor skin abrasions. You're not going to be able to get more serious anaesthetics without a prescription, if at all.

As a general rule, you should not eat or drink anything after midnight before your surgery. Under some circumstances, you may be given permission by your anesthesiologist to drink clear liquids up to a few hours before your anesthesia.

I was the first to go in for surgery (on 90mls of Methadone) & the last to wake up after. I was asleep an extra 4hrs after the last guy to wake who went in as the 4th patient.

Anaesthesia was invented in order to provide a painfree method while a procedure is being done.

Just imagine having four people holding down your limbs, and a surgeon amputating your leg while you are awake and screaming! Scary!

Sometimes. When we have to do something and the patient would feel pain, we often give them an anesthetic so they don't feel it.

A functional group of an ether is characterized by an oxygen atom bonded to two alkyl or aryl groups, represented by the general formula R-O-R', where R and R' can be the same or different hydrocarbon chains. This oxygen atom acts as the central feature that distinguishes ethers from other organic compounds. Ethers are typically less reactive than alcohols and can serve as solvents in various chemical reactions due to their relatively low polarity.

An epidural block is given in the lower back into a small area (the epidural space) below the spinal cord. You will be asked to sit or lie on your side with your back curved outward and to stay this way until the procedure is completed. You can move when it's done, but you may not be allowed to walk around.

Im really hoping youre speaking of anesthesia in a hospital setting...remember Micheal Jackson!

Of course anything a mother consumes, the baby consumes as well, while still in the womb.

Should surgery be necessary, immense precautions are taken to ensure the unborn child doesnt suffer ill effects from it, as anesthesia is a very tricky thing.

Why does it have an adverse effect? umbilical cord is a direct link to the development of the growing child. Anything the mother takes, the child does as well....often with horrible endings due to illegal substances, causing developmental delays, physical abnormalities, and far worse can occurr when people ingest things they shouldn't when pregnant.

it often leads to a life of heartache and remorse, with a mother does not think of the long term consequences of their actions while pregnant.

Testing is done at hopitals upon birth, and babies found to have toxins in their system....usually do not end up going home with their mother.

i urge anyone to stop, think, and take care....its not just your own life anymore to worry about....your decisions affect a life filled with promise..that you can make great, or destroy so easily.

The CPT code for General endotracheal anesthesia is ICD-9-CM. This is a general billing and medical coding code used for insurance reasons.

I: healthy patient II: patient with mild systemic disease without functional limitations III: patient with severe systemic disease with definite functional limitations IV: patient with severe systemic disease that is life-threatening

Generally a combination of the irritable volatile anaesthetic agents use and the fact that a breathing tube may have been passed through your vocal chords, thereby irritating them and producing transient vocal hoarseness.
