Answer»

The correct answer is (b) Render a full body of the PATIENT insensitive to pain

To explain I would say: GENERAL anesthesia is a drug that brings about a reversible loss of CONSCIOUSNESS. These drugs are generally administered by an anaesthesiologist in order to induce or maintain general anesthesia to FACILITATE surgery. It helps to prevent the psychological and somatic adverse effect of surgical trauma and create a BETTER condition for surgery.
