Conclusion Anesthesia risk is not much common.
Anaesthesia is still an art, and there is no substitute for experience, so an anesthetist should choose the protocol best known to him/her.
Cardiopulmonary complications are fatal and
attended with priority.
No single anesthetic agent provide all needed but a combination can be made better.
