Regional anesthesia is anesthesia affecting only a specific area of the body when the patient is conscious, e.g. foot, arm, lower extremities, insensate to stimulus of surgery or other instrumentation.
Anesthesia complications range from minor to catastrophic.
complications of general anesthesia might be due to difficulty in airway management or ventilation.
Also the complication might be due to cardiac arrhythmias and poor response to anesthetic effect during induction or maintenance or even the emergence from anesthesia.
So, the the systematic response to the effect of the anesthesia may occur at any time during surgery.
Some of the complications:
Hypoxia, arrhythmia, hypotension , hypertension, regurgitation and aspiration, hypothermia hypoglycemia, coronary ischemia, embolism, persistent apnea delayed recovery , and many others.
also regional anesthesia has its complications like nerve injury, post spinal headache.
Toxicity from local anesthesia is one of the important complication might occur during local infiltration.

General anesthetics have been performed since 1846 when Morton demonstrated the first anesthetic (using ether) in Boston, USA.
General anesthesia is described as a reversible state of unconsciousness with inability to respond to a standardized surgical stimulus.
In modern anesthetic practice this involves the triad of: unconsciousness, analgesia, muscle relaxation.
Management Of Patient Undergoing Surgerykalyan kumar
Preoperative care refers to health care provided before a surgical operation. The aim of preoperative care is to do whatever is right to increase the success of the surgery.
At some point before the operation the health care provider will assess the fitness of the person to have surgery.
During the perioperative period, specialised nursing care is needed during each phase of treatment. For nurses to give effective and competent care, they need to understand the full perioperative experience for the patient.
Perioperative refers to the three phases of surgery.
Preoperative stage
Intraoperative stage
Postoperative stage
Within these stages there are many different roles for nurses and different care needed for the patient dependent on which stage they are in.
As with any nursing care, the goal during these stages is to provide holistic and evidence based care as well as support to the individual.
There are different nursing roles throughout the perioperative process including: admissions nurse, anaesthetic nurse, circulating nurse or scout nurse, instrument or scrub nurse, post anaesthesia care unit (PACU) nurse and the surgical ward nurse. Other nurses may be included in the perioperative process such as pain management specialist nurses, diabetes educators.
