Expert perioperative anaesthetic care for all surgical procedures, combined with a dedicated pain management clinic for chronic pain conditions.
Safe Sedation & Chronic Pain Relief
Anaesthesiology is the medical specialty responsible for the safe conduct of anaesthesia and the perioperative care of surgical patients. Without anaesthesiologists, no surgery would be possible. The anaesthesiologist is the physician who assesses a patient's fitness for surgery, selects and administers the appropriate anaesthetic technique, monitors the patient's vital functions throughout the procedure, manages any intraoperative complications, and ensures a safe, comfortable emergence from anaesthesia. Beyond the operating theatre, anaesthesiologists play a critical role in intensive care, pain medicine, and resuscitation making them one of the most versatile and essential specialists in any hospital.
MNR Hospital's Anaesthesiology Department provides 24/7 anaesthetic coverage for all surgical theatres, the cardiac catheterisation laboratory, endoscopy suites, and the obstetric unit. Our team of senior anaesthesiologists and residents manages general anaesthesia, regional anaesthesia (spinal, epidural, peripheral nerve blocks), and monitored anaesthesia care for procedures not requiring full unconsciousness. We conduct thorough pre-anaesthetic consultations for all elective surgical patients, identifying and optimising risk factors before the day of surgery. Obstetric anaesthesia including epidurals for labour analgesia and anaesthesia for caesarean sections is a particular strength of our department.
Our pain management clinic manages patients with chronic pain conditions that significantly impair quality of life including back pain, neuropathic pain, cancer pain, post-surgical pain syndromes, and complex regional pain syndrome. We use a biopsychosocial model that combines interventional procedures (nerve blocks, epidural steroid injections, radiofrequency ablation) with medication management, physiotherapy, and psychological support to reduce pain and improve function.
