Anesthesia Services in OT : Historically anesthesiologists have
been known as physicians who administer anesthesia to alleviate pain
and suppress consciousness of patients undergoing surgery.
Today, anesthesiologists monitor a whole range of body functions and
vital signs, such as breathing, blood oxygen, blood pressure and heart
rate to protect your health. Advances in patient monitoring, improved
anesthetic agents and new drug therapies have empowered the
anesthesiologists in a huge way and enabled them to provide the
patient with much better and painless services.
