details

Anaesthesiology focuses on pain relief and comprehensive patient care throughout the surgical process. It includes various medications called anaesthetics, which work differently. Some numb specific body parts, while others induce sleep for more invasive surgeries. Our anaesthesiologists at Sindhu Hospitals are highly skilled in administering anaesthesia, monitoring patients’ vital signs, and ensuring their comfort and safety throughout the surgical process.

Anaesthetic treatments for pain management

Anaesthetic treatments are used for a variety of conditions, including chronic pain syndromes, post-operative pain, neuropathic pain, and cancer-related pain. Some of the types are:

  • Injections: Local anaesthetics are injected into or around nerves to alleviate pain and inflammation in specific areas of the body.
  • Nerve blocks: Medication is injected into major nerve clusters to reduce pain in targeted body regions.
  • Electrical stimulation: Nerves are stimulated through the skin using handheld devices to alleviate pain.
  • Opioid medications: Oral pills are prescribed to manage pain.

Anaesthesiologists play a crucial role in providing care for individuals undergoing minor surgeries or procedures that do not require general anaesthesia, such as those undergoing childbirth. Additionally, they provide post-operative care for patients in the intensive care unit following major surgeries. Furthermore, they assist individuals experiencing severe pain due to injuries or chronic conditions, such as persistent back pain.

  • General Anaesthesia: Offered for various surgical procedures, ensuring patients are asleep and pain-free during the operation.
  • Regional Anaesthesia: Techniques such as spinal and epidural blocks, providing targeted pain relief for specific areas of the body.
  • Local Anaesthesia: For minor surgical procedures, we provide local anaesthesia to numb a small area of the body.
  • Anaesthesia for Delicate Cases: Anaesthesia for paediatric patients, elderly individuals, and those with complex medical conditions.

Anaesthesiologists administer various types of anaesthesia, including monitored anaesthesia or IV sedation, which induces relaxation and can range from minimal drowsiness to deep sedation
