Anesthesiology
Anesthesiologists are physicians who provide pain relief and
maintenance, or restoration, of a stable condition during and immediately following a
surgical procedure, or an obstetric or diagnostic procedure. They assess the risk of
patients undergoing surgery and optimize a patients condition prior to, during, and after
surgery. They also diagnose and treat acute and long standing pain problems. They diagnose
and treat patients who have critical illnesses or are severely insured. They direct
resuscitation in the case of patients with cardiac or respiratory emergencies, including
the provision of artificial ventilation.
