To give patients a handy record of their anesthesia, we created a pocket-sized leaflet, dubbed Your Anesthesia Passport, which lists not only the anesthetics that the patient received, but also describes how these drugs are used and information about potential problems. The passport helps patients better understand the procedures they've undergone in the OR and potentially avoid unnecessary complications in future surgeries, whether at our facility or elsewhere. Here's how you can provide your patients with a simple handout that summarizes their anesthetic experiences and effects.
