Abstract

In light of future space exploration missions far away from low-earth orbit, Therefore, the ability to provide safe anesthesia for urgent operations represents a crucial step to ensure mission continuation. So far, surgery has never been performed in space under microgravity. Thus, there is no Therefore, it is important to look at environments with similar properties and at the way anesthesia is handled there. Those environments should, at least, possess one of the essential characteristics of space exploration medical equipment or the ability to evacuate patients to a hospital. This review summarizes the available literature and gives an overview concerning the provison of anesthesia under spaceflight conditions.
