Definition and Nature of the Work

Anesthesiologists are physicians who focus on surgical patients and pain
relief. They administer anesthetics, which are medicines to prevent
patients from feeling pain and sensations; closely monitor patients' vital
signs during surgery and adjust anesthetics accordingly; monitor
patients through the first recovery stages after an operation; and
administer appropriate medications during recovery. In addition to
helping patients through surgery, anesthesiologists may also help treat
patients with conditions causing chronic pain. Many specialize in
specific types of problems, such as respiratory or neurological illness.
More than ninety percent of the anesthetics used in health care are
administered by or under the direct supervision of an anesthesiologist.

An anesthesiologist's first contact with a surgical patient is usually

during a "preoperative interview." At that time the anesthesiologist
reviews the patient's medical history and medications, discusses the
upcoming surgery, and reviews the options for anesthesia and pain-
killing drugs. The anesthesiologist also becomes familiar with the
patient's preexisting medical conditions, such as diabetes or heart
disease, and plans how to manage those conditions during surgery.

The anesthesiologist is responsible for a patient's life functions as the

surgeon and other members of the medical team operate. In the first
phase of surgery, he anesthesiologist applies the anesthesia. During the
middle phase, as the surgery actually takes place, the anesthesiologist
uses sophisticated electronic equipment to carefully monitor the
patient's vital signs, including heart rate and rhythm, blood pressure,
breathing, and brain and kidney functions. As the surgical procedure
progresses, the anesthesiologist may have to adjust the patient's
anesthesia to compensate for changes in the patient's physical state.
When surgery is finished, the recovery phase begins. The
anesthesiologist administers medications to reverse the effects of the
anesthetic, returning the patient to consciousness if a general anesthetic
has been used. After surgery, patients are moved to a recovery room,
where the anesthesiologist is still responsible for the patient's vital
functions. In the recovery room, nurses and other specially trained staff
closely monitor the patient under the supervision of the
anesthesiologist. Eventually, the anesthesiologist determines when the
patient has recovered sufficiently to leave the recovery room.

There are three main types of anesthesia administered during surgery:

general, regional, and local. General anesthesia renders the patient
unconscious and unable to feel pain or any other sensation. Many
general anesthetics are gases or vapors administered through a mask or
breathing tube, whereas others are liquid medicines introduced through
a vein. Regional anesthesia numbs an entire area of the body requiring
surgery. Local anesthesia is used to numb a specific part of the body
(such as the foot or hand). Both regional and local anesthetics are
administered via injections. In addition to anesthetics, patients
requiring regional and local anesthetics often are given sedatives to help
them relax during surgery and put them to sleep.

Anesthesiologists work in hospitals or outpatient medical facilities

where surgery is performed. Some work in emergency rooms, where
they handle victims of heart attacks, shock, drug overdoses, traumatic
injuries, and other serious health problems requiring immediate care.

Anesthesiologists work as part of a team. In surgery, the team includes

the surgeons performing the operation and the nurses supporting them.
Anesthesiologists often work directly with a nurse anesthetist who helps
administer medications to the patient during surgery.

The job of the anesthesiologist requires intelligence, perseverance, and

years of sophisticated training. Besides great technical skills, an
anesthesiologist needs a good bedside manner, especially during the
preoperative interview when the anesthesiologist must be able to calm
the patient while eliciting important information. Anesthesiologists
must themselves keep calm during high-stress situations, and they need
to be able to maintain peak levels of concentration during long surgical
procedures.
 Earnings and Benefits
Anesthesiologists are near the top of the pay scale among all physicians.
In May 2004 the median annual income for anesthesiologists who had
been in practice for more than one year was $321,686.

PIN when completing a FAFSA on the Web or when applying for
a PIN on the Department’s PIN Web site (www.pin.ed.gov). Full

Most California residents qualify for admission to UC

through something called the statewide path.
To follow this path — and to be considered for admission — you must earn a high
school diploma (or equivalency) and satisfy these three minimum requirements no
later than your high school graduation:

Subject requirement specifies the 15 approved yearlong academic courses you must
complete in high school:
• two years of history/social science
• four years of English
• three years of mathematics
• two years of lab science
• two years of a language other than English
• one year of visual and performing arts
 • one year of a college-preparatory elective
Examination requirement details the college admissions tests you must take: the ACT
With Writing or the SAT Reasoning Test, plus two SAT Subject Tests in two different
areas.
Scholarship requirement calculates the combination of grade point average (GPA)
and standardized test scores you need to attain. You must have at least a 3.0 GPA
(3.4 if you’re a nonresident).

programs look for students and make offers according to your application where you describe your interest
in the program and critical issues posed in today's society on the topic. Be sure to apply if you are interested
in any of the programs, it is one good way to bypass the lottery number system of assignments.

DISABLED STUDENT HOUSING

UC Berkeley, in conjunction with the California Department of Rehabilitation, offers a one-of-a-kind

independent living program, the Disabled Students' Residence Program (DSRP). The DSRP assists
students with physical disabilities, usually requiring a motorized wheelchair and daily attendant assistance.
They participate for two semesters, developing independent living skills. The DSRP assists students with
learning how to hire, train and manage their own attendants and maintain the financial resources required to
continue living independently.

Additionally, the Disabled Students' Program (DSP) on campus can assist students with disabilities and
other special needs in getting accommodations for housing. Some residence hall rooms on the Berkeley
campus have been modified for physically disabled, deaf, hard of hearing, and visually impaired students. In
order to receive the appropriate accommodations, students must request an accommodation on the housing
application, provide documentation regarding their condition and register with the DSP.
