Responsibilities:

Preoperative Care: You will conduct a thorough medical evaluation of the patient before their procedure. This involves reviewing their medical history, performing a physical examination, and discussing their anesthetic options and the associated risks. Based on this, you will formulate a personalized anesthetic plan.

Intraoperative Care: In the operating room, you are responsible for the continuous medical assessment and monitoring of the patient's vital functions. This includes heart rate, blood pressure, oxygen saturation, and body temperature. You will administer and manage the anesthesia—whether it's general, regional, or local—and make any necessary clinical interventions to maintain the patient's stability.

Postoperative Care: After the procedure, you will oversee the patient's recovery in the Post Anesthesia Care Unit (PACU) or Intensive Care Unit (ICU). Your responsibilities include managing their pain, monitoring their condition as they emerge from anesthesia, and ensuring a smooth transition to the next stage of care.
