During surgical procedures, the anaesthesiologist is responsible for performing the procedure without pain and with the greatest possible safety by providing appropriate anaesthesia. However, anaesthesia care is much more than anaesthesia itself: the specialist assesses the patient’s state of health before surgery, plans individualised anaesthesia, monitors life functions throughout the course of the procedure, and ensures safety of awake and analgesia after surgery.

In our clinic, we pay particular attention to ensuring that our patients feel not only professionally safe, but also calm and well-informed. During the pre-operative anaesthesia examination, our specialist doctor provides a detailed review of the patient’s past and present illnesses, medications taken regularly, any allergies, experience of past surgery and anaesthesia, and available laboratory and other test results.

On the basis of the health check, the method of anaesthesia best suited to the specific operation and the patient’s individual conditions is selected. The anaesthesia consultation is also an opportunity to provide patients with answers to their questions about anaesthesia or anaesthesia, as well as detailed information on what to do before surgery, how to proceed with anaesthesia and the post-operative period.
