Before the knee ligament reconstruction surgery, the doctor will talk to the patient about the most appropriate method of anesthesia or anesthesia during the operation.
1. Anaesthetic method
The methods of anesthesia applied in knee ligament reconstructive surgery include:
Live anesthesia:
Applied when there are no contraintraines to anesthesia; spinal anesthesia is an injection of anesthetic into the lumbar spine, after 5-10 minutes of injection of the drug with a leg effect you can not move and lose pain sensation, the doctor will operate for you, during the operation you remain awake but not painful, anesthesia has a short duration of action of 2-3 hours so there is no prolonged analgesic effect , so when the anesthetic effect is over, you will feel pain early, so you have to take painkillers.
Spinal anesthesia in combination with sural anesthesia (wired with plastic into the outer sural cavity):
The advantage of this method is that after surgery you will be given continuous anesthetics through the sturdy threaded line to help you relieve pain after surgery longer than live numbness, this is a combined anesthesia method that is widely used and has a good postoperative analgesic effect for lower-bicenic surgeries such as knee replacement. , hip replacement and knee ligament reconstruction….
Both of the a above-mentioned anesthesia methods after surgery you will be able to move and eat lightly again earlier than a full-body anesthesia.
2. Body anesthesia
Body anesthesia is an anesthetic that uses anesthesia to help you sleep, stretch and painless during surgery or surgery. The drug is transmitted through your vein or may be a gas inhaled (vapor anaesthetic gas) through the airways. Anesthesiologistes often use both airway and intravenous anesthesies together. A snorkel can be placed down your throat after you sleep. Instead, you can put a mask on your nose and mouth. The snorkel or respirator will be connected to oxygen and monitored by anesthesithesithesiators. The ANAESthesiologist will also monitor blood pressure, heart rate and breathing during the procedure. Your anaesthesisi doctor may need to give you enough medication to keep you asleep during surgery. After anesthesia you will wake up, however you still feel drowsy, dizzy and sometimes nauseous so your movement and eating after surgery will be slower than anesthesia. After anesthesia the doctor must use painkillers for you earlier than anesthesia.
Your anaesthetic and repeated surgery problems will affect your health in the future.
Currently, the anesthesies used at Share99 International Health Hub are very good drugs: fast effects and quick disposal, fewer side effects than previous anesthesies, after anesthesia you will wake up faster.
