Can radiofrequency ablation of the heart be performed under general anesthesia?



Cardiac radiofrequency ablation can choose general anesthesia (general anesthesia), general anesthesia is the application of anesthesia drugs to inhibit the central nervous system to achieve the degree of anesthesia, general anesthesia according to the different ways of drug action is divided into intravenous general anesthesia, general anesthesia, inhalation anesthesia, compound anesthesia and other ways.

1. Intravenous general anesthesia: it is the more commonly used clinical anesthesia, the time of action is well controlled, but the anesthesia awakening time is relatively longer than that of inhalation anesthesia, but it is also related to the choice of anesthesia drugs.

2. Inhalation general anesthesia: it is a kind of anesthesia that inhales anesthesia drugs through respiratory tract to act on the central nervous system. Due to the characteristics of anesthesia drugs, this kind of anesthesia is good at controlling the time of waking up, but some anesthesia drugs have volatility and may cause environmental pollution.

3. Compound anesthesia: it is the combination of two anesthesia methods, which can be inhalation and intravenous anesthesia compound.

Cardiac radiofrequency ablation can choose general anesthesia for the operation, the specific use of which anesthesia and the specific type of disease, the complexity of the operation, the length of the operation time has a certain relationship.
