6 Common Anesthesia Side Effects: What to Expect

We need to strap down some body parts and equipment during surgery for patient safety. The arms and legs are at risk of falling off the table if not strapped or restrainted down! If they fall, it can cause serious nerve damage, so we take the restraints very seriously during surgery under anesthesia. The breathing tube also needs to be secured to make sure it doesn't fall out! It gets taped to the skin on the face! #Operatingroom #surgery #anesthesia | Anthony Kaveh MD

Have you heard of “anesthesia awareness” or “awareness under anesthesia?” This is an extremely rare phenomenon where patients “wake up” during surgery and become aware of their surroundings and other details during their procedure. Rest assured, your anesthesiologist monitors you closely to prevent this from happening. #anesthesiology #crna #medicalfacts | Brian Schmutzler
