Anaesthesiology

The Department of Anaesthesiology provides comprehensive anesthesia care and pain management services using advanced techniques and modern clinical practices. The department plays a critical role in ensuring patient safety and comfort during surgical procedures ranging from minor interventions to complex operations.

Anaesthesiologists work closely with surgical and critical care teams to manage airway, breathing, circulation, and vital functions throughout procedures. Their expertise ensures optimal drug and fluid balance, continuous monitoring, and immediate response to any intraoperative complications.

The department offers a wide range of anesthesia services including general anesthesia, regional anesthesia (spinal and epidural), and local anesthesia. In addition, it provides pre-operative assessment, intraoperative monitoring, and post-operative pain management to improve patient recovery and outcomes.

Pain management services include both acute and chronic pain care, supported by 24-hour monitoring facilities. The department also contributes to intensive care and emergency medicine, ensuring critical support for high-risk patients.

The department is actively involved in academic training and clinical research, preparing students to understand anesthesia techniques, patient safety protocols, and perioperative care practices.

Treatment & Procedures

Local Anesthesia
Used to numb a specific area of the body through injections, sprays, or ointments. Commonly applied for minor and outpatient procedures.

Regional Anesthesia
Includes spinal, epidural, and nerve block anesthesia to numb a larger part of the body while the patient remains conscious.

General Anesthesia
Induces unconsciousness during major surgeries while continuously monitoring vital functions and maintaining patient stability.

Monitored Anesthesia Care
Used for minor procedures where sedation and pain relief are provided while closely observing the patient’s condition.

The department supports multiple specialties daily by ensuring safe anesthesia delivery, effective pain control, and improved surgical outcomes. Proper pain management not only enhances patient comfort but also reduces post-operative complications and accelerates recovery.
