Anesthesia

The area of expertise of the Department of Anesthesia covers the component care of the patients before, during and after an operation.  We place special emphasis on carrying out personal discussions to explain the details of the medical procedure before every operation.  We thoroughly advise our patients regarding the many different narcosis methods that we offer at our facilities and the combination of these methods if necessary.  Based upon this consultation, we can determine together with our patients the best narcosis method for each individual situation.  We help our patients overcome their anxiety and uncertainty before the anesthesia through the necessary understanding and providing valuable information. 

 
The service spectrum of the Department of Anesthesia covers the following:

• General anesthesia
• Spinal anesthesia
• Epidural anesthesia
• Specialized nerve blockage
• Postoperative pain therapy
• Generalized pain therapy
• Intensive medicine

We achieve our highest priority through the proper anesthetic dosage and efficiently applied postoperative pain therapy: uncomfortable side-effects of the narcosis and a rapid recovery following the operation.  The pain therapeutic service is of course available also to patients who have not been operated on as well.  Another important service area is the treatment of patients with severe illnesses or that require intensive care after major operations.  Doctors and nursing staff are experienced, highly trained and provide intensive medicine at the highest level.
