Anesthesia

Anesthesia is a specialised medical procedure performed by doctors in the field of anesthesiology and intensive care. It ensures the elimination of pain perception during various diagnostic procedures and surgical interventions, contributing to a comfortable and safe experience for patients.

The most commonly used types of anesthesia in clinical practice include:

General Anesthesia – A medically induced and reversible loss of consciousness, enabling all types of surgical procedures to be performed safely and effectively.
Locoregional Anesthesia – The targeted elimination of pain and sensation in a specific body area while the patient remains awake. This is typically achieved through the administration of local anesthetics around nerve pathways.
Sedation – A state of psycho-emotional relaxation where the patient remains conscious but experiences reduced stress, minimal discomfort, and a neutral response to diagnostic or surgical procedures.

The anesthesia team at Plodnost Hospital is highly skilled in administering all modern anesthesia techniques. When necessary, advanced methods such as ultrasound-guided locoregional anesthesia, airway management using a flexible bronchoscope, and specialized neonatal and pediatric anesthesia can be provided to meet the highest medical standards.

Each anesthetic approach is carefully tailored to the individual patient, considering the type of procedure, patient characteristics, existing health conditions, and ongoing treatments. The most suitable anesthesia options are determined during a pre-anesthetic consultation at Plodnost Hospital, ensuring optimal pain management before, during, and after surgery.

Throughout the entire process, the anesthesia team ensures continuous monitoring and presence, from the moment the patient enters the operating room until they regain full consciousness and protective reflexes in the post-operative care unit.

Prior to any anesthesia, a secure venous access is established, and vital signs such as ECG, blood pressure, and oxygen saturation are continuously monitored to ensure patient safety.

Patients at Plodnost Hospital can rely on anesthesia procedures that adhere to the highest medical standards, ensuring maximum safety, reliability, and comfort.
