Expert Anaesthesia

The quality of an anaesthetic is rarely something patients see — but it is something they always feel. A good anaesthetic means a settled, comfortable beginning, an uneventful procedure, and a smooth, clear-headed wake-up. At 3AI Care, every anaesthetic is delivered by a specialist anaesthetist (FANZCA) who has trained for years to make this look effortless.

Specialist anaesthetists, every time

Our anaesthetists are Fellows of the Australian and New Zealand College of Anaesthetists, with extensive experience in office-based and ambulatory anaesthesia. Every patient is reviewed personally before their procedure, with a tailored plan based on age, medical history, weight, airway, and the dental work being performed.

Modern, gentle techniques

We use modern intravenous and inhalational agents that work quickly and clear quickly, which means a fast, gentle drift-off and a clear-headed wake-up. Anti-nausea medications are given routinely, multimodal analgesia (including local anaesthetic placed while you are asleep) is used to reduce post-operative discomfort, and warming, hydration and positioning are all carefully managed.

Continuous monitoring

Throughout your procedure, your anaesthetist remains at your head, monitoring your heart rate, blood pressure, oxygen saturation, end-tidal carbon dioxide, depth of anaesthesia and temperature. Our equipment, drug stocks and emergency systems are aligned with ANZCA guidelines for anaesthesia outside the operating suites of hospitals.

Pre-anaesthetic assessment

Every patient receives a pre-anaesthetic assessment before the day of surgery. This may be a phone call, a video consultation, or an in-person review depending on your medical history. The aim is simple: no surprises, and a plan that has been thought through long before you arrive.
