About
Dr Shane Merriman is an anaesthetist. The anaesthetist's role is to provide pain relief and care for the patient before, during and after surgery.
An anaesthetist is a highly trained medical doctor who specialises in anaesthesia, pain management, and intensive care. They play a crucial role in ensuring a patient's comfort and safety during surgical, obstetric, and certain diagnostic procedures.
Before a procedure, the anaesthetist will thoroughly assess the patient's medical history, medications, and any allergies to determine the most appropriate anaesthetic plan. They will discuss the different types of anaesthesia available, such as general anaesthesia, regional anaesthesia (like epidurals or nerve blocks), or local anaesthesia, and explain the risks and benefits of each option.
