General Anaesthesia & Deep Sedation

Ordinary conscious sedation, where the patient stays awake and responsive, does not count here. This is informational and does not affect the transparency score.

Clinic operating licence: ERS 18740/2020 | SRER 146782 (Registry: ERS (Entidade Reguladora da Saude). Not found via ERS www2.ers.pt name search (tried 'Advanced Implantology', 'AIC'; a third variant 'Implantology' matched only an unrelated clinic 'EIC European Implantology Center'). FOUND instead self-published on the clinic's own site: footer of aicporto.pt shows two registration lines identically twice: 'ERS 18740/2020 | SRER 146782' and 'ERS 26968/2026 | SRER 175479', plus 'Diretor Clinico: Dr Tiago Moreira OMD 12767' and 'Diretor Clinico Adjunto: Dr. Paulo Moreira OMD 11700' -- note these clinical-director names differ from the clinic's roster in clinics.json (Dr. Andrea Rocha / Dr. Marcelo Rocha), suggesting the worklist's doctor list may be outdated. 2026-08-25.)
