• General anesthesia: Acts on a patient’s whole body. The patient goes to sleep and feels nothing. The patient will have no memory of the procedure performed
• Local anesthesia: Numbs one small area of the body. Patients stay awake and alert during the procedure
• Regional anesthesia (Epidural): Blocks pain in an area of the body, such as an arm or leg. Epidural anesthesia, which is sometimes used during childbirth, is a type of regional anesthesia
• Sedation: Uses sedative drugs or a combination of more than one drug to keep the patient more relaxed and to relieve pain. The patient stays awake but may not remember the procedure afterward
