Anaesthesia

In the practice of medicine, especially surgery, and dentistry, anaesthesia is an induced, temporary state with one or more of the following characteristics: analgesia, paralysis, amnesia, and unconsciousness. Intensive care medicine or critical care medicine is a branch of medicine concerned with the diagnosis and management of life-threatening conditions requiring sophisticated organ support and invasive monitoring.

Anaesthesia is generally safe, but complications with anaesthesia can occur. Local anaesthesia carries the lowest risk, and general anaesthesia the highest. Anaesthesia information management systems are rapidly increasing both their adoption and overall functionally. It mostly deals with the evaluation, disorders and functional monitoring of the patient. This includes functional monitoring of anaesthesia given patient before and after surgery.
