Abstract

Thorough preoperative assessment of the oral and maxillofacial surgery patient is a crucial step prior to the provision of anesthesia. Particular attention must be paid to key factors likely to influence the course of care such as the patient’s airway, obesity, adherence to NPO guidelines, and the use of illicit drugs. Furthermore, anesthesia providers must be proficient in monitoring patients appropriately during the perioperative period. Development of an individualized anesthetic plan based on the specific needs of the patient, the surgical procedure, and other key factors is essential along with continual assessment and optimization of the patient’s cardiopulmonary function. There are multiple sedative and anesthetic techniques at the disposal of the oral and maxillofacial surgeon who must ultimately create a plan that meshes well with the aforementioned factors. Thorough understanding of the various drugs, routes, management options, and potential complications, including the indications, contraindications, risks, and benefits, is essential for the safe delivery of anesthesia. Additionally, the clinician must be able to identify and intervene accordingly whenever complications arise during the perioperative period.
