What is an anesthesia?
- Anesthesia is a medical treatment that prevents patients from feeling pain during procedures like surgery, certain tests, tissue sample removal and dental care.
- Four main categories of anesthesia used: General anesthesia, Regional anesthesia, Sedation (called "monitored anesthesia care") and Local anesthesia.
- Local anesthesia blocks the transmission of pain impulses to the brain; as a result, the patient cannot feel pain but is able to move and feel pressure.
- Sometimes patients may choose which type of anesthesia will be used.
