Hello,
I'm not a student nor a doctor. I've googled a lot but haven't found what I'm looking for. Hope someone here could help:
If a patient under propofol and remifentanil stops breathing(and intubation gets troubled) will he experience or "feel" the hypercapnic alarm? The sense of suffocating?
I understand anaesthesia deals with pain but not sure if that suffocating is considered pain.
It is very important to me to know this, I'd appreciate a lot any insight.
thank you
