The anaesthetic procedure

All operations are performed under general anaesthetic. TIVA, which we use nearly exclusively, does not use anaesthetic gases which put a strain on the patient. Patients usually stay in the day clinic for 4 - 6 hours after a laparoscopy and 2 - 4 hours after all the other operations.

Transfer to a hospital after the operation is only required in special cases. These include extensive operations, underlying internal diseases needing treatment and the situation where a relative cannot look after the patient.
