At Mohmand Hospitals we provide a comprehensive range of clinical services,
including peri-operative anesthesia services and neuro-anesthesia. The Department of Anesthesiology of the hospital has achieved excellence for general and regional anesthesia. The foundation of this department is the clinical skill of our anesthesiologists who have received training and accomplishments from the best institutes around the world.
We have a dedicated team of many senior anesthetists who along with their associates & junior staff provide round the clock service. The anesthetists are helped by the state of the art anesthetic equipment. Services provided also include preoperative checkups and post-operative pain management.
Types of anesthesia provided depend on the patient’s medical status and type of procedure –
General Anesthesia – Patient is not conscious
Regional anesthesia – Local anesthetic is injected by anesthesiologist to provide numbness in certain part of body. This could be used for pain control during/after procedure.
MAC (Monitored Anesthesia Care) – Monitoring care of vitals during a procedure, may involve sedation if necessary.
The anesthesiologist will meet the patient prior to the surgery and discuss the medical history, lab results and anesthesia plan. In the O.T a member of the anesthesia care will be with the patient throughout the procedure. After the procedure patient will be moved to the recovery room and a nurse will monitor the patient and provide medication to minimize pain, nausea and vomiting as needed. Then the patient will be discharged from Recovery room on advice by anesthetist when he is stable and comfortable.
