MUSC Professor Discusses Rarity of Anesthesia Awareness

Professor of Anesthesiology Orin Guidry, MD, from the Medical University of South Carolina was featured in a recent USA Today article discussing the growing concern of anesthesia awareness occurring with the release of the new film Awake (http://www.muschealth.com/insights/source="wr") occurs when a patient becomes conscious but remains paralyzed during an operation. "It is a variety of sensations, all the way from a fleeting recall of something that might have happened in the beginning or the end of the operation progressing in severity all the way to the horrible experience that's portrayed in the movie," Guidry said in a recent MUSC video interview on anesthesia awareness. Although studies show that instances of anesthetic awareness occur in only 0 .1% of procedures, Guidry says that anesthesiologists should try to do all they can to prevent any occurrence of this condition.
