Anesthesiology
The Department of Anesthesiology and Critical Care Medicine provides 24-hour coverage by staff anesthesiologists and critical care physicians specially trained in pediatric anesthesiology and critical care medicine. Anaesthesia is a medical subspecialty that helps to reduce pain before, during, and after surgery. Intensive care medicine supports all specialities and deals with seriously or critically ill patients who have or are recovering from conditions that may be life-threatening. Administering anaesthesia is a very risky procedure and requires great skill.
Our department has a dedicated team of anaesthesiologists, intensive care specialists, and skilled nurses who provide a comprehensive range of services for all types of surgeries, trauma and other critical conditions. All our staff in this department are ALS/BLS (Advanced Life Support/Basic Life Support) trained. We aim for our patients to have a comfortable and pain-free experience during their period of hospitalisation.
If you are about to undergo surgery, the doctors will first administer anesthesia to reduce pain during the surgical process. The type of anesthesia that the professional will give you will mainly depend on factors like your health condition and the surgery procedure. The type of anesthesia that we provide includes:
General Anesthesia: General anesthesia will make you insensitive to pain or unconscious during the surgery. It is necessary when the surgery is invasive or involves an area of the chest, head, or abdomen. After taking the dose, you become unconscious and feel nothing. You will have no memory of how the procedure was performed.
Local Anesthesia: This type of anesthesia is given to the patient to numb only a small portion of the body. The most appropriate example of using local anesthesia is cataract surgery, skin biopsy, or a dental process. Here you are awake during the process.
Regional Anesthesia: Regional anesthesia makes a larger part of the body insensitive, like the area below your chest or limb. In addition to regional anesthesia, the doctor may give you sedation, or you can be conscious during the surgical process. It is necessary to ease childbirth pain or during C-section, knee surgery, hip or spinal surgery, etc.
Conscious or intravenous sedation: This is a mild sedative given to you by the doctor to relieve pain along with pain medicine. After taking the dose, you may remain awake, but you will not remember the process afterward.
