Anaesthesia, intensive care and pain therapy

Welcome to the department of anaesthesiology, operative intensive care and pain therapy

The anaesthesia is nowadays integrated in the whole perioperative process of the patients. That means, the anaesthetist catches up on the patient previous to the operation in the premedication conversation about the condition of health, estimates with this findings the risk for the planned operation and discusses with the patient the appropriate narcosis method.

During the operation the team of qualified physicians and nursing staff is responsible for the analgesia and the dormancy and monitors at the same time the vital functions like as circulation and respiration.

After the operation the patients will be attended in the anesthetic recovery room so long as they are finally free of pain and free of nausea and vomitus. After bigger and complicated medical interventions a well versed team at the intensive care department cares for the stabilization of the patients.

For the days after the operation an acute-pain-service helps the departments with words and deeds.
