Administering anesthesia carries a number of risks, including the potential for nerve damage, eye damage, dental or oral trauma from intubation, allergic reactions, intraoperative awareness ("waking up" during surgery), and even death. Mistakes in anesthesia may occur before or during inpatient surgery; however, they can also occur during childbirth, post operative recovery, dental procedures and various other outpatient procedures. Complications arising from anesthesia may occur for a number of reasons, but when they do the results can be devastating.
