Anaesthesiology
Perioperative care, pain management, critical care, resuscitation training, and anaesthesia services across surgical and emergency settings.
About the Department
The Department of Anaesthesiology is a vital component of modern healthcare, encompassing perioperative care, pain management, critical care, and resuscitation services. The scope of the subject extends beyond the operation theatre to intensive care units, emergency medicine, trauma care, and palliative services, making it a multidisciplinary specialty.
In the MBBS curriculum, Anaesthesiology is taught during the clinical years, primarily in the third professional phase, with both theoretical knowledge and practical exposure. Students are introduced to basic life support, airway management, and perioperative patient care, which are essential competencies for all medical graduates.
Clinically, Anaesthesiology plays a crucial role in ensuring patient safety during surgical procedures, providing pain relief, and managing critically ill patients. Anaesthesiologists are integral to emergency response systems such as code blue teams and trauma services.
The department is equipped with modern operation theatres, advanced anaesthesia workstations, ventilators, multiparameter monitors, defibrillators, and intensive care support. Facilities for acute and chronic pain management, along with simulation-style procedural training, further strengthen learning and patient care.
Research in Anaesthesiology focuses on patient safety, pain management techniques, critical care protocols, anesthetic drugs, and monitoring technologies. The discipline holds immense importance in medical training because it builds foundational skills in resuscitation, critical thinking, and patient monitoring.
