Did The Anesthesiologist Act Appropriately?
While many people who are going to have a surgery fear the surgeon making a mistake, the reality is that anesthesia errors can easily create a fatal risk for the patient.
An anesthesiologist is a medical doctor, not simply a technician. The administering of anesthesia is a complex medical process that must take into account a large number of elements ranging from your medical history to weight, age and other factors.
The anesthesiologist is responsible for choosing the right anesthesia in the right amount for the medical procedure you will be undergoing. He or she must also check for allergies and the possibility of any negative interactions between any drugs you take regularly and the proposed anesthesia.
If an anesthesiologist fails to make the proper judgments, there can be a large number of potential harmful outcomes, including:
- Waking up during surgery
- Paralysis
- Stroke
- Brain damage
- Coma
- Death
