Anesthesia and Pain Management

The Department of Anesthesiology at Al Kindi Hospital uses the most advanced, safe, and patient-focused techniques in the delivery of anesthetic care.

Our team of extremely skilled and well-experienced, highly qualified anesthesiologists aim to provide optimum quality patient care not only in the operation theatres but also beyond it by optimizing pre-operative patient status in our pre-anesthesia clinic with full detailed assessment and providing comprehensive patient care during the early post-operative period.

Types of Anesthesia

The type of anesthesia to be used by your doctor depends on many factors like the procedure of your surgery and your current health, age, body weight, and many other factors.

• Local anesthesia: numbs one small area of the body. You stay awake and alert during the procedure.
• Regional anesthesia: 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.
• General anesthesia: acts on your whole body. You go to sleep and feel nothing. You have no memory of the procedure performed.
• Sedation: uses sedative drugs or a combination of more than one drug to relax you and to relieve pain. You stay awake but may not remember the procedure afterward.
