Anesthesia Medicine

Anesthesia is a controlled, short-term loss of feeling or awareness used to perform medical procedures. Analgesia, paralysis, muscular relaxation, forgetfulness, and unconsciousness may all be present. Anesthesia allows for the painless presentation of medical procedures that would otherwise be technically impracticable or would cause significant or excruciating pain to an anaesthetized patient.
