General anesthesia (GA) is the state in which a patient produces analgesia, muscle paralysis, sedation and sometimes amnesia due to administration of certain drugs. An anesthetized patient can be thought of as being in a controlled, reversible unconsciousness state. Anesthesia empowers a patient to endure surgical methodology that prevents unbearable pain. General surgery is the specialty of surgery that deals with throat, stomach, colon, liver, pancreas, gallbladder and bile channels, and the thyroid gland. They also includes the skin, peripheral vasculature, eye, oral and maxillofacial (jaws and face), otorhinolaryngology (ear, nose, and throat).
