Confused about surgery type?
inwiththenew replied to AJP1243's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thats just it safest may be open. I dont know your situation good luck -
Ok when you go in the OR you will have probably already been given a little versed. It helps you relax. You will move onto the OR table and they will put monitors on you. They will give you oxygen through a mask. Then they will put propofol into your iv you will be sleep in a matter of seconds. After you are sleep they will put an ET tube into your throat. You will barely remember going in the room. Thats the way the meds work. Good luck

Could mean he is going to attempt laproscopic surgery but your consent will say possible open. If he has to go open he has the consent to do so -
Anesthesiologist are usually the ones that are more cautious. They want to make sure you will be alright being put to sleep. This test is to reassure that all is ok. Try not to worry until there is something to worry about. I know it's easier said then done. Praying all comes out well
