Anesthesia Nursing

Anesthesia nursing involves specialized nursing care for patients undergoing procedures that require anesthesia. Anesthesia nurses, also known as certified registered nurse anesthetists (CRNAs), collaborate with anesthesiologists and surgical teams to ensure patients are safely sedated and pain-free during operations. They assess patients' medical histories, monitor vital signs, administer anesthesia, and respond to any complications that arise. After surgery, they help manage pain and guide recovery. Their expertise is crucial to maintaining patient safety and comfort throughout the surgical experience.
