Regional Anesthesia
Regional anesthesia involves the administration of anesthetic agents to specific areas of the body to block sensation and pain during surgical procedures. This technique is used to numb a larger area of the body without affecting the patient's consciousness. Anesthesiologists and nurse anesthetists play a critical role in administering regional anesthesia and monitoring patients to ensure their comfort and safety throughout the procedure.
