Center of Anesthesiology and Perioperative Medicine

The choice depends on the scope of the procedure and the patient's condition.

• Sedation is a state of deep relaxation and calm in which the patient stays conscious and can talk to the doctor but feels no fear.
• General anesthesia (medicated sleep) is a complete shutdown of consciousness and pain sensitivity.

Sedation suits stress relief for small procedures, anesthesia — long operations or treating young children.

Modern drugs act gently and are quickly eliminated through the lungs right after the supply stops. International studies confirm that a single anesthesia for medical reasons does not affect a child's cognitive development, memory or intelligence. The stress of pain and being held down harms the psyche far more.

This is exactly where the anesthesiology center's help matters most. We specialize in managing patients with comorbidities. A preliminary consultation and preoperative preparation let us stabilize the condition, choose an individual organ-protection protocol and ensure continuous monitoring of vital functions.

Safety is guaranteed by three factors:

• A dedicated anesthesiologist and nurse anesthetist never leave the patient.
• Monitoring to an international standard — expert-class equipment tracks ECG, blood pressure, blood oxygen and gas concentrations on inhalation and exhalation in real time.
• Strict protocols — following international safety checklists.

Thanks to latest-generation drugs and 'preemptive' pain-relief techniques, the wake-up period is comfortable. The patient wakes within 10–15 minutes after the procedure ends. In the recovery room we monitor the condition until reactions fully return, and you can go home within a few hours.
