General Anesthesia: The patient who is under general anesthesia temporarily loses consciousness. This state, unlike normal sleep, is a temporary state of unconsciousness that is achieved under the control of the anesthetist and with medications. The patient’s sleep time is adjusted according to the duration of the surgery. Awakening occurs when the effects of the anesthesia drugs given to the patient end.
Regional Anesthesia: In regional anesthesia, the surgery area is anesthetized without removing the patient’s consciousness. Regional anesthesia can be applied only to the area where the patient will be operated on or to the major nerves of that area, and in some methods, injections can also be made from the patient’s waist (spinal, epidural anesthesia). With these methods, the patient is aware of what is happening during the surgery and does not feel any pain. The drowsiness felt disappears within a period of time that varies depending on the medications used.
