Redheads And Anesthesia: There Is A Difference For Them!

 

Anesthesia can be tricky. The internet makes it easy to read horror stories about patients who were awakened during surgery, or people who received the wrong part of the body removed. There's something else to worry about. Are you a redhead? Are you ready to get general anesthesia? It's possible Group Anesthesia Company that you have heard that redheads need more anesthesia. Just a little research will show that this is true. Here's why. Here are the thoughts of one researcher:



Dr. Daniel I. Sessler is an anesthesiologist who chairs the department of outcomes at the Cleveland Clinic. He said that he started studying hair color because of speculations from colleagues about redheads needing more anesthesia.

Dr. Sessler stated that before he did his research, it was almost an urban legend that redheads needed more anesthetic. This phenomenon was observed by enough doctors that the department decided to do a scientific study.

After publishing research on the subject, Dr. Sessler started hearing from redheads about their fears about the dentist and dental pain. Redheads who are considering having a procedure that requires anesthesia for dental reasons should consult their doctor.

Scientifically, it has been proven that redheads are resistant to local and general anesthesia. Doctors now know that this isn't speculation. Redheads should expect to need more anesthetic relief than non-redheads when they visit the dentist, hospital or urgent care. It's a fact.

My redheaded friend was relieved to hear that. She said that now she will not feel so bad about telling the dentist that she can still feel what they are doing to her, and that yes, she does still need more novocaine. This will hopefully help other redheads understand why they need pain relief.

This brings me to the next point. Are you a redhead who needs to have surgery? Do you worry that you might need more anesthesia? There are several things to be concerned about with anesthesia: being given too much and not waking afterward; not getting enough anesthesia, waking up before the surgery is over; being too strong and not feeling anything; and being resistant to anesthesia. These scenarios are unlikely but they can happen so it is worth thinking about what to do. Talk to your doctor about your options.
