Specifically, it is made up of three differentiated parts: the prefix an which means \u201cwithout\u201d;  the concept aesthesis which can be translated as \"sensation\" and the suffix ia.<\/p>\n<p>The <strong>anesthesia<\/strong> is the <strong>absence, either total or partial, of sensitivity<\/strong>.  It can be caused by a <strong>trauma<\/strong> or from <strong>artificial and induced way<\/strong>.  The term is generally used to refer to the <strong>medical action<\/strong> which consists of inhibiting the <strong>pain<\/strong> in a patient by supplying a substance with anesthetic properties.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/enorcerna.com\/wiki\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/anestesia.jpg\" alt=\"Anesthesia\" title=\"Anesthesia\" width=\"240\" height=\"161\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-1905\"\/>The branch of medicine that is responsible for caring for and caring for people in the framework of a surgical operation is known as <strong>anesthesiology<\/strong>.  This specialty, however, can also deal with the relief of pain that comes from non-surgical reasons, such as the supply of anesthetic substances to the mother during delivery.<\/p>\n<p>Based on all this, we can establish that the professional in charge of carrying out this task is the one who receives the name of anesthesiologist.  This, in particular, is the doctor responsible for the well-being of the patient both before, during and after the surgical intervention to which they are going to undergo.  Hence, ensure the safety and comfort of that.<\/p>\n<p>It is known as <strong>general anesthesia<\/strong> to that which affects consciousness, produces the emergence of a <strong>amnesia<\/strong> temporary and eliminates reflections.  The substance supplied has hypnotic properties and can be applied in different ways (through inhalations, intravenous needles, etc.).<\/p>\n<p>The <strong>Local anesthesia<\/strong>Instead, it only blocks pain in a specific area of \u200b\u200bthe <strong>Body<\/strong>.  Its effects cause the electrical impulses of the <strong>muscles<\/strong> and the <strong>nerves<\/strong> are not transmitted normally for a transitory period.  An example of local anesthesia is one that is used when teeth must be extracted from the patient.<\/p>\n<p>Another type of anesthesia is <strong>locoregional anesthesia<\/strong>, which cancels the sensitivity in one or more limbs.  This is the case of the <strong>epidural anesthesia<\/strong> (also known as <strong>Epidural anesthesia<\/strong>), which consists of introducing a local anesthetic into the so-called epidural space.  This substance acts on the nerve endings when they leave the medulla.<\/p>\n<p>The <strong>spinal anesthesia<\/strong> or <strong>Spinal Anesthesia<\/strong>, on the other hand, it is applied in the spinal space and takes effect more quickly when compared to the <strong>epidural<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>When determining the type of anesthesia that will be administered to a specific patient before a surgical operation or test of different types, the medical personnel who will undertake it must take into account a series of very important factors.  Among them are the type of intervention, the part of the body in which it will be performed, the duration of the procedure, the diseases that the person has suffered or suffers from and the history of reactions to anesthesia.<\/p>\n<p>And all this without forgetting that, in the same way, other values \u200b\u200bof equal importance will be taken into account, such as the case of the drugs that the patient is taking at that moment or the conditions of the same with respect to age, weight and height. .<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"kk-star-ratings kksr-auto kksr-align-center kksr-valign-bottom\"\n    data-payload='{&quot;align&quot;:&quot;center&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;2491&quot;,&quot;slug&quot;:&quot;default&quot;,&quot;valign&quot;:&quot;bottom&quot;,&quot;ignore&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;reference&quot;:&quot;auto&quot;,&quot;class&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;count&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;legendonly&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;readonly&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;score&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;starsonly&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;best&quot;:&quot;5&quot;,&quot;gap&quot;:&quot;4&quot;,&quot;greet&quot;:&quot;Rate this post&quot;,&quot;legend&quot;:&quot;0\\\/5 - (0 votes)&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;24&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;anesthesia&quot;,&quot;width&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;_legend&quot;:&quot;{score}\\\/{best} - ({count} {votes})&quot;,&quot;font_factor&quot;:&quot;1.25&quot;}'>\n            \n<div class=\"kksr-stars\">\n    \n<div class=\"kksr-stars-inactive\">\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"1\" style=\"padding-right: 4px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px;
