Anesthesia ensures a pain-free experience during surgical and medical procedures. There are different types, including general, regional, and local anesthesia. The anesthesiologist will evaluate your medical history and tailor the anesthesia plan to your specific needs. During the procedure, they will monitor your vital signs to ensure your safety and adjust anesthesia levels as necessary. While generally safe, anesthesia does carry some risks, which your anesthesiologist will discuss with you beforehand.
