PRE-OPERATIVE

Any surgical technique is preceded by some sort of emotional reaction. Although surgical interventions can be a relief, the psychological suffering and the preoperative stress can delay the postoperative recovery. In the full knowledge of that situation, besides we will indicate you what the meaning of surgery is, we will deliver to you a dossier where it is indicated all normal and abnormal symptoms that you may feel.

You can talk with our patients who have had similar experiences, ask our patients about our method, in which way they used the information of the dossier of pre and post-operative care and which was the most difficult part, so this way you will be prepared better for your surgery.

Pre-operative study

In the pre-operative consultation will take place a clinic history in which you will be asked by your backgrounds. In general, the preoperative study consists of a conventional analytical, a study of coagulation and an electrocardiogram.

In addition, sometimes it is required of a chest x-ray (especially in older than 45 years, smokers or previous pulmonary Pathology).

Anesthetic

All our patients are anesthetized under the same team of anesthesiologists in which we place our trust. The reason for this is the patient’s safety and the quality of anesthesia.

They have developed policies and actions related to the safety of patients, with special emphasis on the prevention and control of intraoperative complications.

We have as custom that those procedures that require general anesthesia make it through LMA, laryngeal mask airway, so we do not have the necessity of make an endotracheal intubation as in the past.

In addition the modern anesthetic agents we use, such as isoflurane, sevoflurane, fentanyl and propofol have invalidated the objections that patients were indicating before facing general anesthesia given that we have greater control in their blood pressure, a decrease in the risk of bleeding and edema, decreased of cardiac irritability… Besides, the maintenance of hemodynamic parameters suitable for the surgery can prevent post-operative deterioration.
