Many drugs that "knock you out" for surgery prevent you from forming memories, not make you unconscious. Wikipedia "Twilight Anesthesia".
DrMardini
right but you don't give those drugs without a sedating agent. Propofol has made this obsolete since its both and is a fast inducer.
DrMardini
Anesthesia does wipe memory. 3 components immobility analgesia and amnesia
sarahsals
If you're under going surgery on Versed, you basically are awake and have your memory wiped clean 0..o

PumpkinMasher
When I had my wisdom teeth surgically removed I was given a gas and told that I would be awake for the surgery but wouldn't remember it.
PumpkinMasher
I didn't remember it either. There was actually a cool time jump.
Ezzybells
Unfortunately there is some truth to it. They give you something that does wipe your memory IN CASE you wake up so you don't sue them.
DrMardini
that is no where near close to the reason to give an amnestic. Baseline patient comfort factors majorly into physiological parameters.
Ezzybells
That too. PS my info came from an anaesthetist in Australia.
DrMardini
They were messing with you lol 140 characters isn't enough space to list why we need amnesia for surgery
DrMardini
and making sure a patient is not anxious, has no chance of awareness or memory will limit complications during and after surgery.

The anesthesia one is partially true. Anesthetics not only block pain and slow our nervous system (knock us out) but also prevent memories!
Tennex
Barbiturates :)
BoOtto
Usually benzodiazepines in modern medicine. The drug of choice in Finland is usually midazolam.
hiyer2
I was going to mention this. Thanks for doing it for me!
BoOtto
And if a patient seems to be awake/partially awake during an operation, the first thing is to give medication that blocks memories.
BoOtto
It also relaxes and sedates, so it's not just to block memories.
Callistan
Sort of... They prevent the formation of new memories. Memories that already exist are stored through a different pathway that is (1/2)
Callistan
(2/2) unaffected by the anesthetic.
JBSmoove
Oh I know, that's what I was implying. I literally used all of my word count though and didn't include "new" haha

Ah, then don't mind me. I'm just a science nazi.

People would know the truth about the anesthetic thing because all the doctors and nurses would know you were awake
HarryPotterGeek
Actually, Versed (common for conscious sedation) does help people forget what happened while they were "under."
MyDadLooksLikeTomCruise
upvoting you and the original commenter because your usernames go together.
jrau18
I had that done when I had my wisdom teeth out. I think "forget" needs to be in quotation marks.
DrMardini
you weren't dosed well. Versed is a benzo which is an anxiolytic at low dose, sedative at medium and hypnotic at high. You have a high EC50
jrau18
Eh, it was free. I'm not complaining.
FestiveFerret
I read an article about a woman who was awake but paralyzed during surgery because the anesthesia hadn't worked properly. Effing terrifying.
ldraptor
I had a friend who had the same thing happen to him.
callielizz
It happened to my mom during back surgery. She could feel everything but couldn't even blink or do anything to let them know she was awake
khaleesiofwesteros
Isn't there a movie similar to that?

ihavecurlyhaironmyhead
There was a Nip/Tuck episode when that happened.

My father was an Anesthesiologist. Oftentimes, he said, people had no conscious memory of invasive procedures, but if they had to (1/2)

undergo a 2nd surgery, they were inexplicably anxious. Their vital signs leading into a subsequent procedure would be elevated.

Great. I'm going in for surgery tomorrow...can't wait.
Leralith
meh :( Don't be afraid! At what time? (and in which timezone are you living?) - I'll think of you then!
CSLewis
They monitor your heart and brain activity so they know somethings is wrong if anything like this happens; you have nothing to worry about.
EqualimInfinity
My entire family is allergic to anesthesia. We very commonly wake up during surgeries. It takes 3x dosing to keep me under.
veryimgurwow
Wait, if you're allergic how can you use it?
EqualimInfinity
After the procedure. It's basically like the body expelling it as quickly as possible because it doesn't get along well with us.
EqualimInfinity
It's not like a normal "break out in hives and swell" allergy. It just ends up being processed very quickly, and making us EXTREMELY sick..
veryimgurwow
oooh so your body metabolizes it super quick? Weird! When I got my wisdom teeth taken out the anesthesia made me feel super nauseated
EqualimInfinity
Yeah, it's no fun. I usually opt for "twilight" which is exactly what this quote speculates. You're awake, but you don't remember anything.
HarryPotterGeek
Actually... that's kind of how Versed works- it helps you forget what happened, which is why some people refuse to take it before surgery.
Tennex
Yup all benzos and barbiturates have memory impairing effects. But mostly they anesthetize the patients.
whatsagoodname
True that's how that drug is supposed to work. I think these people are referring to anesthetics that don't work correctly.
DrunkenChekhov
Also propofol. Makes you forget.
AnybodyOutThere
Not to mention um... um... Makes you
veryimgurwow
Yeah, when my dad had brain surgery to remove an aneurysm he was on propofol
DrMardini
people don't get to refuse an induction agent. Its up to the anesthesiologist, midazolam like all hypnotics needs to be titrated to an
DrMardini
amnestic dose otherwise it functions like all benzos as just a sedative. If you're patient isn't dropping you up the dose. plain and simple
