Anaesthesia is a field of medicine that has evolved significantly over the years. Its history dates back to ancient times when various methods, such as alcohol, opium, and mandrake root were used to alleviate pain during surgical procedures. However, these methods were often unreliable and caused adverse effects.
In 1846, the world's first successful public demonstration of ether anaesthesia was conducted by William T.G. Morton in Massachusetts General Hospital, marking the beginning of modern anaesthesia.
