Department of Anesthesiology

About

The specialty of anesthesiology has been marked by unprecedented growth and change in various methods of rendering the patients insensitive to pain. Monitoring and maintaining vital organ functions during surgery remains the main professional activity of the anesthesiologist. The practice of anesthesiology continues to grow as evidenced in the development of subspecialties like pain management, critical care, and preoperative medicine.

Over the years, along with the development of medical sciences, the department has set its own high standards in patient care, education, and research. All surgical and super specialties are anchored to this specialty.

The department has an annual intake of 06 junior residents pursuing their MD Degrees. All postgraduates are posted in routine OTs, ICU, PAC, and pain clinics in rotation.

Conferences, workshops, and CMEs are organized and attended by the department regularly.
