Patients Safety

ASSURING THE SAFE DELIVERY OF ANESTHESIA BY THOROUGHLY PREPARING FOR YOUR PATIENT’S PROCEDURE

Eastside Anesthesia assures the safe delivery of anesthesia by thoroughly preparing for your patient’s procedure. This entails a detailed preoperative inspection of the room, equipment, supplies, medications, and a review of charts and records with the facility personnel.

All anesthetic apparatus is inspected, tested and ensured serviceable by the Anesthesia provider before induction. In particular, the anesthesia machine is inspected for performance consistent with anesthesia safety. Protocols for equipment care and infection control are continually reviewed. Our staff will determine the monitoring techniques to be employed during an anesthetic based on your patient’s medical status and the type and magnitude of the surgical procedure. We adhere to the “Standards of Basic Intra-operative Monitoring” endorsed by the American Society of Anesthesiologists. These standards are followed during all General Anesthetics, Regional Anesthetics and Monitored Anesthesia Care.

We routinely make pre and post procedural calls to provide patients with instructions and monitor recovery.
