How To Do Knee Arthroscopy Anesthesia
Jan 27, 2023
It is usually done in combination with lumbar and epidural anesthesia, which is to inject the drug into the subarachnoid space and indenture the tube in the epidural space. During the operation, you can add the drug, but because the arthroscopic operation is actually very small, you can generally not add it. If you're nervous, ask the anesthesiologist for a sedative and sleep it off. It will be painful the first day after surgery, but usually it will be relieved by the second day. You've got rehab after the arthroscope, so it's not gonna be painless. But it shouldn't interfere with sleep or anything like that. If you're the very pain-phobic type, ask for a pain relief pump. But I think your operation should not need, major operation is only used on, you finished with three small wounds on the knee joint, very small, no need.
