No. The only reason you would wake up during your procedure is if we gave you minimal sedation rather than a general anesthetic and intended for you to come back to consciousness. We calculate the exact depth of anesthetic needed to keep you properly sedated by considering your needs, the procedure requirements, and the effects of the anesthesia. We use a BIS monitor that detects brain activity to ensure appropriate level of sedation. The advantages of using a BIS monitor include the correct amount of medication given, an ease in waking up quickly, fewer side effects, and less recovery time.
