What advancements have been made in surgical oncology anesthesia?
Innovations in anesthesia for cancer surgery have focused on improving patient safety and comfort. Techniques such as regional anesthesia and nerve blocks provide effective pain management while reducing the need for general anesthesia, which can have more significant side effects. Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols, which include optimized anesthesia and pain control strategies, have also been implemented to accelerate recovery and reduce hospital stays.
