The first general anaesthesia
was given a hundred and fifty years ago. This is one of the
youngest specialities of medicine now diversified in to newer
branches like Intensive Care, pain relief, and emergency medical
management.
An Anaesthesiologist (Anaesthetist) is a medical doctor who is a postgraduate in this field. They are assisted by Associate Consultants, Registrars, Operating Department Assistants (technicians), and recovery room nurses. Well-trained staff and availability of latest technology makes this as one of the safest places to get an anaesthesia.
Safety and Technology
Features:
Anaesthetic machines giving adequate oxygen at all times
Anaesthetic gas monitors
One of these is available in every theatre unmatched even in the developed world. These monitors let us use extremely low fresh gas flows lesser than 500mls resulting in extreme economy, and negligible theatre pollution. They monitor the following continuously
oxygen
carbon dioxide
nitrous oxide
anaesthetics gases
Anaesthetic gas monitors
ecg
blood pressure
oxygen saturation
invasive pressures such as arterial pulmonary artery central venous
temperature
airway pressures and gas volumes
neuromuscular function monitoring
Cardiac monitoring
thermodilution cardiac output
continuous cardiac output
continuous mixed venous saturation
Equipment making most complicated surgery safe
Bair Huggers & disposable blankets
blood warmers
syringe pumps, infusion pumps
blood gas and electrolyte machine
Incubating bronchoscope
Newer drugs freely available
fentanyl
sevoflurane
propofol
Newer muscle relaxants
Latest disposables
Fully equipped post operative recovery rooms with monitoring equipment as in the operating rooms
