Premedication

Premedication

Premedication is the administration before surgery of a drug (usually one of these drugs is an anesthetic) for preparation. In addition, the patient is given some kind of sedative, as well as atropine to reduce the secretion of bronchial gland secretions (otherwise, while under anesthesia, the patient may suffocate on it). Premedication can reduce the patient’s anxiety and fear before surgery, facilitate induction of anesthesia and make it smoother and safer. Correctly administered premedication helps stabilize hemodynamics during anesthesia and surgery. The choice of drugs and premedication regimen depends on the patient’s condition, the type of surgery to be performed and the type of anesthesia. Premedication is an important component of anesthesia, allowing to optimize the course of the perioperative period.

Premedication is the administration of medications before surgery or other medical intervention, which is carried out to prepare the patient for the procedure and reduce the risk of complications.

Before undergoing anesthesia, the patient is given sedatives, such as sedatives or tranquilizers, to reduce anxiety and anxiety. This allows you to reduce the patient’s motor activity and facilitate anesthesia.

Also, before the operation, the patient is administered atropine, which reduces the secretion of bronchial gland secretions. If the patient does not receive this drug, then during anesthesia he may suffocate from the secretions of the mucous membranes of the respiratory tract.

Premedication may also include the administration of antibiotics, anticoagulants, antihistamines, and other medications that may be needed during surgery.

In general, premedication is an important part of preparation for surgery and allows you to avoid possible complications and reduce the risk of side effects.

Premedication is the administration of medications before surgery or anesthesia to prepare the body for surgery. It is carried out to reduce the risk of complications and improve the general condition of the patient. In most cases, premedication includes the following drugs:

Anesthetics are the most common component of premedication. They
