Gender differences in preoperative anxiety, perioperative pain experience, and physiologic responses to anesthesia exist. Pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic gender differences in anesthetic drugs are especially significant for propofol and nondepolarizing muscle relaxants. Nonobstetric anesthesia for the pregnant patient is briefly reviewed.
