Anesthesiology/copy of hospital records

Question
If I ask for a copy of my hospital record, will it have the kind of anesthesia that was given to me on it?

Answer
Yes it will. You can ask for specific parts of your record instead of the whole thing. Charts tend to be very large and the hospital can charge you for the copying so you should only request what you need.
