General anesthesia is a controlled state of unconsciousness, induced with medications, that allows surgeries and procedures to be performed without pain or memory of the event. It keeps the patient asleep and monitored throughout the entire intervention.

What is it for? It makes possible operations that would be intolerable while awake, controlling pain, awareness, and vital functions.

What does it include? A prior assessment, the administration of drugs, continuous monitoring of vital signs, and control of recovery.

Who administers it? It is led by the anesthesiologist, with support in pain management from the pain specialist (algologist) in certain contexts. Before any surgery, it's worth discussing your history with the specialist who will plan it.
