On the operating table, how do you know that you have been anesthetized?

Dr. Wang is a surgeon who is notoriously genuine. Sometimes, I will be red in the face because of a sentence on the operating table.

On the operating table, how do you know that you have been anesthetized?

It is such a real person, even his own surgery is not spared.

Not long ago, he unfortunately suffered from appendicitis.

Years of surgical experience had taught him that the knife could not run.

With all kinds of reluctance, he transformed his role from doctor to patient.

For anesthesiology, he was like many surgeons: in their bones, they felt that anesthesia was nothing. Sometimes they even want to try to give patients anesthesia. Of course, the anesthesiology department could not give him this opportunity.

With all sorts of disobedience and a hint of disdain, he was pushed onto the operating table.

On the operating table, how do you know that you have been anesthetized?

As soon as he lay down, he swore: I can know when you numbed me! In disbelief, we made a bet on the little hot pot opposite the hospital.

Dr. Zhang, who was in charge of anesthesia, showed a faint smile inside the mask: Impossible, you certainly don't know. Or rather, you can't remember at all. This time, you lose.

Usually, he does not have a trace of nervousness when he operates on patients. But today, he was inexplicably nervous. At this time, he was subconsciously more worried about when he would be numbed.

Therefore, he stared nervously at Dr. Zhang's every move.

Bet on it, but Dr. Zhang will not change the established anesthesia process because of this: snap the mask to absorb oxygen, sedation, administer medicine...

A few minutes later, the disgruntled surgeon "went to sleep."

After skillfully intubation, Dr. Zhang had completely forgotten the bet.

Due to the short duration of the operation, he woke up quickly and the results were good.

The first thing I woke up was to ask: Did you give me medicine in the mask?

Apparently, even the comrades who fought together every day didn't know much about the business of anesthesia: gone were the days of anesthetics in masks, decades ago.

At this point, he was no longer the surgeon who was cowholing, he was just a patient who had just been operated. After a consolation and admitting to losing a hot pot, he finally sent him away.

Then again, how does the patient know he's been numbed?

It can be said that anesthesiologists have "a hundred ways".

The so-called "hemp past" is understood from the public point of view to "sleep past" and "lose consciousness". In fact, this range can be very wide. Broadly speaking, as long as the anesthesia works, it should be considered "numb past", whether it is local anesthesia or general anesthesia.

On the operating table, how do you know that you have been anesthetized?

A brief introduction to several:

In local anesthesia, injecting local anesthetic into the surgical area is considered "numb".

Spinal canal anesthesia, which is often referred to as "semi-anesthesia". When an anesthesiologist injects local anesthetic into the spinal canal to take effect, it is considered that the "numbness has passed".

In general anesthesia, when the anesthesiologist has given various drugs and completed the endotracheal intubation, it is considered that the "numbness has passed". Of course, there are many short surgeries that do not require intubation. At this time, the "hemp past" may be more advanced.

If subdivided, there can be many forms: for example, after giving sedatives, the patient is asleep even if the numbness has passed; some anesthesia does not necessarily have to achieve the effect of sleeping in the past. During that process, the patient will be quiet, and even the spiritual world is no longer in the operating room.

As the combination of drugs increases, there are many ways anesthesiologists can get patients to sleep. It is no exaggeration to say that an anesthesiologist is comparable to a "yellow medicine man". However, the drugs used by anesthesiologists are all for the purpose of treating diseases and saving people.
