What is Anesthesia?
 

Anesthesia is the loss of feeling or sensation with or without loss of consciousness. This can create a state of unawareness, reduced consciousness and relaxation. This, along with keeping you pain free during the procedure, anesthesia controls your body's reaction to stress and relieves fear and anxiety.

Anesthesia techniques involve the use of inhalation (gases) and intravenous (IV) medications to produce these states as described above.
