curious, its hard to understand precisely what they do to put you out when youre lying on the table in the OR

i always forget what they do. is it the IV line they put in you in the pre-op room that does it or something else? or did they put a mask on me and i wasn't aware?

anyhow i certainly like how they let you walk into the OR instead of being wheeled in. it normalizes everything and takes away the stigma of being a patient

They put something in the IV to put you to sleep. Then they do the intubation/mask, which they take out before they wake you up.

It is an IV. Once you're out, they intubate and manage airway.
