General Anesthesia in a Hospital Setting

General Anesthesia in a hospital setting refers to a medically induced state where a patient is asleep and unable to feel pain during surgical or medical procedures. This is done using a combination of drugs administered intravenously or through inhalation.
The primary goal is to ensure that the patient is completely unaware of the procedure, relaxed, and does not experience any discomfort. The process involves monitoring and controlling the patient’s vital signs, including heart rate, blood pressure, and oxygen levels, to ensure their safety throughout the procedure.

Once the procedure is complete, the anesthesia wears off, and the patient gradually regains consciousness in a recovery area.
