The probability of conscious awakening during anesthesia is extremely low. Our specialists administer precise dosage of the medication and ensure careful monitoring throughout the procedure. Modern anesthesia techniques and equipment are specially designed to maximize the safety of patients.

Nowadays, your anaesthetist can adjust the duration of the anaesthesia precisely to the duration of the operation.
Nowadays, anesthetic drugs are very well tolerated. Please discuss individual intolerances with your anaesthetist.
During general anesthesia, in addition to consciousness and the sensation of pain, important protective reflexes, such as the swallowing and coughing reflex, are temporarily turned off. To ensure safety during the procedure, the following guidelines usually apply:
Nutrition: Up to 6 hours before the introduction of anesthesia, you can have a light meal, for example, a slice of white bread with jam or a glass of milk.
Clear liquids: Liquids that do not contain fat, particles or alcohol (e.g. water, fruitless juices, carbonated drinks such as mineral water or lemonade, as well as tea or coffee without milk) can be drunk in small quantities (one to two glasses/cups) up to 2 hours before anesthesia.
Medications: Medications to be taken regularly as well as premedication agents may be taken on the day of the operation with a small sip of water until shortly before the procedure.
Please note that your doctor may adjust the recommendations depending on medical need. Always follow the instructions of your treatment team.
The anaesthetist, also called anaesthetist, is your most important contact person when it comes to anaesthesia/anaesthesia. He gets an accurate picture of your special needs during the educational interview and the preliminary examination. In coordination with other specialist groups, he then creates an individual treatment plan. During and after the procedure, he continuously monitors your condition and intervenes if necessary. These highly trained specialists ensure a high degree of safety with innovative technology and modern narcotics.

After an operation, it is not allowed to go home by car yourself, even if you feel well. The reason for this is that the effect of anesthesia, as well as painkillers or other medications administered, can affect your responsiveness and judgment.
It is important that you organize an escort who will bring you home safely and then take care of you for some time afterwards.
After an outpatient surgery, you should keep the rest of the day free of obligations. Please note that you are neither legally competent nor fit to drive for the next 24 hours.
