Is anesthesia safe for older people with dementia?
That's a very good question. Make sure your primary care physician knows about your concerns, so that they can perform tests to solidify a diagnosis. Typically, the anesthesia for minor dental procedures would not exacerbate his symptoms, as short acting medications and/or volatile anesthetics are used. READ MORE
Do kids need anesthesia before being taken for a CT scan?
A CT scan is typically of short duration, but if he is not able to lay still (I know my 2 year old wouldn't!), they will most likely give him medication through an IV or orally to help him relax for that short period of time. READ MORE
Is plavix( clopidogrel ) a blood thinner?
Plavix is a blood thinner and should be stopped for many surgeries, particularly a knee replacement. Make sure your cardiologist is aware of the surgery and clears you to come off the medication. He/she may decide to replace it with another medication or have you stop totally. Typically patients stop the medication for 7 days before and restart after 2 days--the specific timing would be determined by your cardiologist and orthopedic surgeon. READ MORE
