This involves the injection of local anaesthetic drugs to numb the area of the body to be operated. Regional anaesthesia can be used to relieve pain during an operation, and/or for pain relief afterwards. Regional anaesthesia is also used for people for whom general anaesthesia is not suitable, and it can be used for major operations like caesarean section or hip operations. You will be awake under regional anaesthetic, although drugs may be given to make you feel relaxed and drowsy during the procedure if you wish.
This involves giving a mixture of drugs to keep you unconscious and pain-free during the operation. Drugs are injected into a vein, but it may also be breathed in as gases or vapours into the lungs, or both. The anaesthetic may be sustained using gases (breathed into the lungs) or by intravenous anaesthetic (infused through the vein) and medications for the pain are given through the vein or as a suppository (rectally). Other drugs may be used, for example, to prevent nausea and vomiting. When the surgery is over, medications are given to reverse the process.
One of the most effective and reliable ways of relieving labour pain. An injection is done to locate the epidural space within the backbone canal and a fine plastic tube is inserted. Pain relief is accomplished by the injection of painkillers through the small tube. Medication can be continued through this small tube via an automated infusion pump, or patient-controlled analgesia pump. This method of pain relief provides
a safe and gives consistent reliable pain relief in labour and reduces many stress-related responses of the body to pain.
