Your Hospital Stay – Day 2

Have we crossed the mountain?

Day 2 – We just had our surgery. Many a time we find ourselves in our rooms. Your mother is there by your bedside and your spouse busy getting your medicines for the day in an order. Yes, you just completed your surgery successfully and the proof the light dull ache at the surgery site.

Your Hospital Stay – Day 1 !

Admission for surgery! The ‘D’ day!

As discussed earlier, it is important we get admitted several hours ahead, may be the night before if it is a intestinal surgery. Early admission helps us get acclimatised to the new surroundings. Also, the hospital gets enough time to ensure all the preparatory steps are completed in time.

Preparing for Surgery? (step 2)

For surgeons to operate on us, we need to sleep so that they can operate without we moving our body. Also it is important that we should not be experiencing pain. Both these requirements need anaesthesia (medical sleep).
