Frequently Asked Questions
What are the types of anesthesia?
- General - similar to a deep sleep
- Spinal/Epidural - produces numbness below a certain level using medicine injected through the back
- Regional - puts a portion of your body to sleep by using an appropriate location to produce numbness
- Sedation - provides relaxation and pain control
Which type of anesthesia will I receive?
Your anesthesia provider will consult with you and your surgeon to make the appropriate recommendation. This will be based on what is needed for your surgery, your medical history, and your wishes.
Will I be awake?
At times, certain procedures require intended awareness. Your anesthesia provider will make sure you know what to expect. Patients can also have some awareness upon entering the operating room and when waking up after the procedure. It is rare that a patient will experience unintended awareness, and your anesthesia provider will take precautions to prevent this.
