General Practitioners

• Electrocardiogram
  After you arrive in the waiting area of the operating suite a member of the anesthesiology team will meet you. An intravenous (IV) infusion will be started in an arm or hand vein and you will be taken to the operating room. Your blood pressure will be checked and electrocardiogram leads placed on your chest so that your heart activity can be monitored while you are under anesthesia. If you are to receive a general anesthetic, you will receive medication through the IV, which will induce your anesthesia.

• Labor and Delivery
  Anesthesia is a natural concern for women giving birth. It is important to remember that the all-important goals in anesthesia for childbirth are the well being of the child and the safety and comfort of the mother. All anesthetics are administered so as to avoid depressant effects on the newborn child.
