The Department of Anesthesia manages a wide variety of common conditions, covering anesthesia requirements for surgeries across multiple specialties. These include, but are not limited to: anesthesiology for cardiothoracic and vascular surgeries, such as coronary artery bypass grafting and heart valve replacement; anesthesia for general surgical procedures, such as hepatobiliary pancreatic and duodenal surgeries, gastrointestinal surgeries; anesthesia for neurosurgical procedures, such as cerebral aneurysm clipping and brain tumor resection; anesthesia for orthopedic surgeries, such as joint replacement and spinal corrective surgeries; anesthesia for obstetrics and gynecology procedures, such as labor analgesia and cesarean section; and anesthesia for pediatric surgeries. Additionally, the Department of Anesthesia is also involved in the diagnosis and treatment of pain-related conditions, such as acute pain, chronic pain, and refractory pain.
