UC scientists are working to reinvent anesthesia

Drugs used in today’s operating rooms are safe when administered by specialists, but anesthetics that don’t require such expertise would make surgery less onerous and expensive for patients, as well as more accessible in under-resourced environments, including rural areas, developing countries and war zones, where a lack of anesthesiologists and their monitoring and life-support equipment often limits patients’ access to needed procedures.
