What does an anesthesiologist do exactly?
They study anesthesia, They must know what medications are compatible, What happens if they are not, They need to know what happens when someone is allergic, What meds to use for allergic patients, How much to use how often, how long. They are in the operating room during surgery controlling pain. Lots of stuff in addition to this. Exactly. ---- The Anesthesiologist is the doctor in charge of sedating and keeping sedated the patient for surgery. It is their job also to maintain the patient's vital signs; breathing, blood pressure, and homeostasis, or keeping everything balanced to acceptable levels during the surgery. They can also call an end to a surgery if the patient's vital signs are so out of balance that death seems possible. They are also the ones who decide whether or not they want to give blood transfusions or any of the blood alternatives to maintain the patient's fluid volume and oxygen levels. (If you don't want a blood transfusion, you must discuss this with the Anesthesiologist before surgery. There are forms that you can fill out, requesting blood substitutes and/or alternatives, releasing the Anesthesiologist of any responsibility. There are many doctors who now prefer "Bloodless Surgery") Their job ends when the surgery is considered a 'success', the patient is awakened in the recovery room, and is stable and aware of his surroundings. (I have had several "Bloodless Surgeries")
