Treatment concepts. Anaesthesia and Intensive Medicine

Comprehensive care. Before, during and after surgery

The patient will receive information on the anaesthetic and the surgical procedures before every operation.

The patient will receive information on the anaesthetic and the surgical procedures before every operation.

We speak to the patient before a scheduled operation. It is important to us that the patient´s current state of health be recorded accurately. This makes it possible to estimate the risks associated with the general anaesthesia and, if necessary, initiate the taking of further precautionary tests. Together we discuss and select the anaesthetic intervention most suitable for the patient and provide information and explanations on any possible side-effects.

Explanations and precautionary measures to estimate the presence of possible risks

  • Detailed research into the state of health
  • Precise description of the anaesthetic procedure
  • Additional tests before inpatient stay: Laboratory tests, ECG, x-rays, lung function tests, sonography

Quick recovery thanks to individual pain therapy

Freedom from pain during the recovery period is just as important as the anaesthetic during surgery. Following a partial anaesthetic, a thin catheter remains near the neural structures. A local anaesthetic can then be administered through this catheter and reduces wound pain. If this method cannot be used, we offer our patients a programmable injection pump. A well-dosed portion of highly effective pain killer is then given directly into the blood stream at the push of a button.

Safety with intensive monitoring

Patients who require special attention will be treated in the Intensive Care Ward. An experienced, highly-qualified and understanding team of nursed will support the patient until the patient can be transferred onto a normal ward.
