Anesthesia for One Day Surgery
One-day surgeries are diagnostic and therapeutic operations or procedures that take place in hospitals and specialized medical centers, where the patient comes to the hospital or center and performs the operation and then goes home on the same day without the need for hospitalization.
With the tremendous development in anesthesia science and patient monitoring techniques, safe and effective anesthesia has become available for patients with day surgery, as it has become available to use modern drugs and techniques that allow rapid recovery of patients with a very small percentage of complications such as nausea and pain.
