Anesthesiology

Anesthesiology is the specialty that focuses on the management of anesthesia during surgical procedures and pain control. Anesthesiologists ensure patients are safely sedated and pain-free before, during, and after surgery. They monitor vital signs, adjust anesthesia levels, and manage post-operative pain to ensure a smooth recovery.
