Anesthesia is a drug that provides insensitivity towards the pain to a person. It is usually used before operating upon a patient. It is a temporary solution for the loss of pain. The composition of anesthesia generally comprises of mixtures of inhalable gases (nitrous oxide) and various derivatives of ether, such as Isoflurane, Sevoflurane, and desflurane.

Arthroscopy is the procedure in which the damage of joints is diagnosed and minimally operated too. The procedure is performed by inserting an arthroscope inside the body through a minute incision.
