Abstract

This comprehensive review delves into the intricate relationship between vascular integrity and anesthesia implementation. Anesthetic agents can influence blood vessel function, leading to vasodilation or vasoconstriction, which in turn affect blood pressure, oxygen delivery, and tissue healing. Compromised vascular integrity poses risks for perioperative complications, delayed wound healing, and thrombosis. Robust monitoring techniques, non-invasive tools like ultrasound and doppler, and biomarkers enable real-time assessment and optimization of vascular function intra-operatively. Strategies for preserving vascular integrity span preoperative optimization, fluid management, and tailored pharmacological interventions. Emerging technologies, potential research areas, and personalized medicine approaches in anesthesia practice offer exciting prospects for the future.
