Every healthcare worker in a hospital or
clinical setting contributes towards saving the lives of patients. This
includes physician anaesthesiologists who work hard to ensure that even the
most complicated surgery is safe and the patient is successfully discharged.
According to specialist anaesthetists like Dr. Rowan Molnar, even the most
straightforward procedure can often be a challenging one. An infected and
inflamed organ that could stop bleeding during surgery could prove detrimental
to the patient. However, anaesthesiologists customize their anaesthesia plan to
suit a patient’s circumstance. They understand disease processes and organ
systems, and how they can be combined with an anaesthetic.
Specialists in complex
and emergency situations
According to Dr. Rowan Molnar,
Staff Specialist Anaesthetist at Launceston General Hospital, preparation is
key to ensure a safe and successful surgery. Very often they set up different
types of medications to cope with any emergency. Anaesthesiologists have a
special understanding of the surgeon’s procedure and how it will react with the
diseases processes of the patient. For specialists like Dr. Rowan Molnar,
quality care is what matters. Administering anaesthesia is a technical process
and a complex medical procedure that requires constant monitoring. According to
research, the presence of a physician anaesthesiologist prevented almost 7
excess deaths per 1,000 cases in which complications occurred during surgery.
When it comes to pain management, specialist anaesthesiologists play a
significant role in a post operative setting as well. They are uniquely
qualified to prescribe and administer drug therapies and perform special
techniques for acute and chronic pain.
