How Common is Anesthesia Awareness in Gynecological Procedures?
While anesthesia awareness is rare, its incidence is higher in certain types of surgeries, such as those involving trauma or the cardiovascular system. In gynecology, the risk is generally low but not negligible. Studies suggest that less than 0.2% of patients undergoing general anesthesia experience awareness. However, the actual incidence may vary based on the type of procedure and patient-specific factors.
