- This anesthetic produces unconsciousness so that you will not feel, see, or hear anything during the procedure. The anesthetic medications are given to you through an intravenous line or as a gas through a mask.
- Intramuscular injection or oral pre-sedation might be necessary separately, in some cases with children and special needs patients.
- Insertionof an endo-tracheal tube or a similar breathing device might be needed during the anesthetic.
