let me buzz...

Anaesthesia can be terribly simple or simply terrible goes a popular saying. Each day is spent providing anaesthesia care shovelling long hours into the quagmire of altered patient physiology. While we go about handling the patient’s vitals with the surgeon’s demands juxtaposed, current advances and practices remain elusive to the learning curve.


This blog is an earnest attempt, a tiny step none the less, to help keep ourselves abreast with the latest fads, nuances and gizmos that seem to gather more attention than the patient at times!

Having got a feeler of this medical specialty coined snooze science for over a year, the quintessence to our profession lies buried beneath tons of written text, ever evolving journal articles and clinical trials. The segment on journal entries shall give you a brief insight, be it a difficult case, recent technique, drug formulation or just an observation.

Minute details about Anaesthetic implications and management in various conditions can go amiss with our daily routine. E books in pdf and pdb formats can prove quite handy while on the go or in the operating room. The segment on eresources and books will give you a definite edge.

Current advances in anaesthetic techniques and paraphernalia prove to be to be quite cumbersome to master with forever evolving trends. A news segment focussing on recent advances will give u a brief synopsis of what the future holds in store.

Orthopaedic chaps cannot find ,let alone drill, the funny bone as often as we do, no matter how hard they try! A fun section will ease all those tense non paralysed muscles on your forehead a wee bit, I hope. Heck, we could have a TOF watch monitoring that because that’s what we do exclusively intraop!

Any input in the form of posts, comments and contributions would be deeply appreciated.

With hope that we make some ripples, here is me signing off with a borrowed quote from Edward Lorenz’s chaos theory, “something as small as the flutter of a butterfly’s wing can ultimately cause a typhoon halfway around the world”.
