  • @iloveGerardWay1424 they'll tke the tube out before you wake up usually. It depends on 1: type of surgery

    2: The length and amount of medications given during the surgery to anesthetize you and paralyze you DURING SURGERY

    3: Weather after the surgery you're breathing on your own.

    Usually after the surgery, they give you medicine to revese any parayzing agents and they'll wait until you start breathing on your own, and remove the tube, and then you will wake up AFTER the tube is removed.

  • @iloveGerardWay1424 they take it out when you can breathe on your own, common side effect is sore throat ive had both tube types done

  • @bomberfun1 Of course a CRNA is not an anethesiologist, an MD or physician is

  • they said that they put the tube in when the patient is asleep. when the surgery is done and the patient is taken off anesthesia, do they take the tube out before they wake up? im curious because i might need surgery sometime later in life because of gallstones. (cut me some slack im only 14 :P)

  • My friend is a CRNA and they are just as qualified to care for a patient as a anesthesiologist. In rural areas some hospitals only have CRNAs to do their anesthesia. So yes there are highly qualified.

  • CRNA can do and do through the same exact training as MD's do... The only difference in practice is the MD signs off on the medication....

  • Very true i need to get one im going under next week.
