Obstetrics

An epidural gives anesthetic medicines to the lower back to reduce the pain felt from contractions.
If a cesarean section is needed, stronger anesthetics are given in the same location, to numb the lower body completely for the cesarean. And if severe complications arise, the anesthesiologist may need to provide general anesthesia. In our hospital, the anesthesiologist can provide or supervise the administration of medications such as morphine, fentanyl, and others.
The patient might be given control of their pain management, under the anesthesiologist’s supervision. They might be given an infusion pump that delivers additional analgesic medication whenever the patient presses the button.
At Prasidh hospital, the anesthesiologist provides pain relief before, during, and after surgery, but they also fulfill a number of other important roles.
Pain relief in surgery
Before the operation, a patient will meet with the anesthesiologist for an evaluation. The anesthesiologist at our hospital will make a plan for the operation that takes into account the individual needs of the patient. On the day of the surgery, the anesthesiologist supervises the administration of medication so that the patient will not experience pain.
Although, the anesthesiologist does not physically provide most anesthetics. Our doctors supervise either a CRNA or Anesthesia Assistant while they provide the anesthetic. CRNAs usually work independently without any supervision as well. The type of pain relief offered during surgery might be:
During the procedure, the surgeon or the doctor carries out all the surgical work, but the anesthesiologist will continue to be responsible for the medical management of that patient.
They monitor the patient’s bodily functions, assess the best way to treat all the vital organs, and provide a balance of medications suited to the individual’s needs.
The functions they need to monitor include:
• heart rate and rhythm
• breathing
• blood pressure
• body temperature
• fluid balance
The anesthesiologist controls these vital measures, the patient’s level of pain, and unconsciousness throughout the operation.
After surgery
After the procedure of surgery, the doctor continues to be responsible for the patient’s overall care. They will reverse the effects of the anesthesia and then continue to evaluate the patient and keep them comfortable as they recover.
During this process, the anesthesiologist will direct other health workers regarding this, including specialist nurses.
Critical and emergency care and other roles
The doctor also plays a key role in critical care and treatment and trauma. They assess patients, make diagnoses, provide support for breathing and proper circulation, and help to ensure that infection is prevented.
