accidental awareness
B2CEFR level
60/100Rarity: rare
TechnicalRegister
The unintended return of consciousness during general anaesthesia, sometimes with explicit recall of intraoperative events.
Depth-of-anaesthesia monitoring is used partly to reduce the rare but distressing risk of accidental awareness.
Rarity runs from 0 (a word everyone knows) to 100 (almost never seen outside specialist or literary writing). Level is the word's real difficulty on the CEFR scale, from A1 to C2.
