ANESTHESIOLOGY Terminology Process course categories Roles of anesthesiologists Side effects

2 Terminology Anesthesiology
- A department which deals with anesthesia for diverse purposes particularly to perform an operation Anesthesiologist A doctor who specializes in giving anesthetics to the patients. Majorities of the operations cannot be performs without anesthesiologists.

3 Process Attend the Medical department (regardless of the partial field) Formal training Completion of residency at the fourth year Postgraduate courses (specialize) Four years of college Four years of medical school Four years of residency After graduation: Generally, there are only few anesthesiologist; so, it is easier to have a job compared to other doctors.

4 Roles of an anesthesiologist
An anesthesiologist injects a corresponding anesthesia to the patient in order to perform an operation. An anesthesiologist does not work in an emergency room. Without the anesthesiologists, it is barely impossible to have an operation. They must judge an appropriate anesthesia to be applied to the patients based on their condition No other doctor can take the role of anesthesiologist.

5 They must attend the operation to check the condition of the patient whether he had proper anesthesia. Always check the blood pressure and respiration before and after the injection of any anesthesia. (alternation)

6 Anesthesiologist’s Life
Their assigned works vary upon the number of patients. Thus, their income also varies on the number of operations/schedules that they are in charge of. The average income of an anesthesiologists reach won.

7 Types of anesthesia Gas Mask Liquid type anesthesia Endotracheal tube
General anesthesia (GA) is the state produced when a patient receives medications for amnesia, analgesia, muscle paralysis, and sedation. An anesthetized patient can be thought of as being in a controlled, reversible state of unconsciousness. A certain type of anesthesia applied to a patient depends on the prescription from the head department.

8 Advantages Reduces intraoperative patient awareness and recall[2]
Allows proper muscle relaxation for prolonged periods of time Facilitates complete control of the airway, breathing, and circulation Can be used in cases of sensitivity to local anesthetic agent Can be administered without moving the patient from the supine position Can be adapted easily to procedures of unpredictable duration or extent Can be administered rapidly and is reversible

9 Disadvantages & Side Effects
Requires increased complexity of care and associated costs Requires some degree of preoperative patient preparation Can induce physiologic fluctuations that require active intervention Associated with less serious complications such as nausea or vomiting, sore throat, headache, shivering, and delayed return to normal mental functioning Associated with malignant hyperthermia, a rare, inherited muscular condition in which exposure to some (but not all) general anesthetic agents results in acute and potentially lethal temperature rise, hypercarbia, metabolic acidosis, and hyperkalemia DEATH

10 Vomiting % Nausea % Sore throat - 25% Incision pain - 30%
