Anesthetic for plastic surgery

To a plastic surgeon during the operation could concentrate as much as possible, it is necessary that the patient "does not interfere" with him - he was calm and relaxed. To the patient completely relaxed and "did not interfere" the surgeon, a good anesthesiologist-resuscitator and skillful application of anesthesia for plastic surgery is needed. Such is the chain.

Calm, only calm!

Someone once compared the work of an operating surgeon and an anesthesiologist to the actions of a pair of fighter pilots in an air battle, where the one-leader, the other-the slave. And from the level of the fallowness of such a pair, the outcome of the battle and the flight as a whole depend on their understanding of a friend "from a half-look".

Perhaps this comparison has the right to life. Anxiety is, indeed, a very important component of any modern surgical operation. Especially, if it is a question of plastic surgery. Here often the bill goes literally on millimeters, and it is necessary that not only the patient is calm - that muscles of his body are extremely relaxed and allowed the doctor-sculptor to "cut off excess" with jewelry accuracy. And here the role of the "first sign" is for an anesthesiologist.

Trust your "wizards"

Do not believe those "heroes" that, supposedly, they are absolutely fearlessly at the operating table. Fear of the operation is quite natural for any person. To overcome it is required ... but no, not the most "magic" ukolchik - first of all, the maximum trust in the attitude of the team of brigades.

It is no accident that the etymology of the word "doctor" goes back to the original Slavonic roots: before "vrati" meant "talking, talking". In the near-Bulgarian language the word "doctor" means a sorcerer, a medicine man. And in the Serbo-Croatian "doctor" is a sorcerer, a sorcerer. So, preparing for the operation, first of all, try to trust your "wizards". But not just a word - to see the certificates that confirm the level of doctors' qualifications, believe me, it will not hurt.

And more important - about the technical equipment. Alas, even today, in the 21st century, one can run such a clinic of plastic surgery, where there is no one, a full-time anesthesiologist, there is no modern resuscitation unit. This is already nonsurgery at the level of art, and even handicrafts - people working in such conditions, probably, will be more properly called ordinary "shabashniki".

If you are ready to entrust your health and life to them, a vyvododin: you are a fan of tickling your nerves, experiencing fate in "Russian roulette".

In this respect, the staff of one of Moscow's leading plastic surgery clinics "Beauty Doctor" can be calm: here is the level of equipment, and the attitude towards patients - which is noted by many of them - without exaggeration, at a good European level. Vovsiakom case, sincere words of gratitude to his address, anesthesiologist-resuscitator clinic Igor V. Arkhipov heard a lot of times.

The concept of a balanced anesthesia

What kind of anesthesia to choose - general or local - is for therapists. This depends, first of all, on the nature and complexity of the forthcoming operation. Local anesthesia is most often used in contour plasty, with the removal of cutaneous benign formations - that is, in those cases where the object of surgical intervention is a relatively small area of ​​the body.

The anesthetics can be injected intravenously - to immerse the patient in a so-called medical sleep. For this purpose, special drugs are used that guarantee complete peace during the operation and absence of negative reactions after it: after awakening, a person does not experience nausea, is in a fine mood.

In some cases, for a deeper analgesia of a specific part of the body, intravenous anesthesia is combined with a local one. General is applied during plastic surgery, when the patient does not have the opportunity to breathe independently (for example, with rhinoplasty).

Probably, there is no sense to overload here readers with such professional "subtleties" as the specifics of the use of muscle relaxants, opioids. It will suffice to say that in modern surgery, including Iplastic surgery, the concept of balanced anesthesia is actively used, when the optimal variant of anesthesia is chosen, allowing the patient to feel during the operation quite comfortable, and the surgeon - to conduct it as much as possible.

Myths about "horror stories"

Well, a little about the "terrible". Rather, about what to be afraid of, the current is just not necessary. Probably, many heard about anaphylactic shock-the allergic reaction of the human body to the injected anesthetic. So, firstly, according to statistics, this happens once for 10,000 anesthesia, and, secondly, the anesthesiologist who admits such is bad.

The point is (and the beauty clinic "Beauty Doctor" here, as they say, again at the forefront), that before the operation the patient must undergo thorough laboratory tests, during which the samples are performed on anesthetic. Only the safest is chosen. In addition, modern drugs have an extremely low allergenicity. Together, all these factors reduce the risk of anaphylactic shock to a minimum.

During the operation itself, the patient does not for a second stay without the supervision of an anesthesiologist-resuscitator with this supersensitive apparatus, the reaction to any changes in the state of health of the operated will occur instantaneously.

And the "swish" of this pair - a plastic surgeon and anesthesiologist-resuscitator - always guarantees "flight" in the regular mode.
