Common Questions
Modern anaesthesia is very safe. Your anaesthesiologist checks your health before surgery and monitors you continuously during the operation to keep risks low.
No. Depending on the surgery, you will either be fully asleep (general anaesthesia) or the area will be numbed (spinal or nerve block), so you do not feel pain.
An empty stomach reduces the risk of food or liquid entering the lungs during anaesthesia. Follow the fasting time advised by your team.
A small injection in the lower back numbs the lower half of the body. It is used for many knee, hip, hernia and lower abdominal operations, and you can stay awake or be lightly sedated.
Neuro anaesthesia is specialised anaesthesia for brain and spine surgery. It carefully controls blood pressure, oxygen and brain pressure to protect the brain and spinal cord.
Do not stop any medicine on your own. Your anaesthesiologist will tell you which medicines to continue and which to pause, such as blood thinners or some diabetes medicines.
Some people feel mild nausea or drowsiness, which usually settles quickly. Medicines can prevent and treat it.
