Areas of Expertise and Treatments
General anaesthesia uses medications to produce a controlled state of unconsciousness during selected surgical procedures.
Regional anaesthesia blocks sensation in a specific part of the body while allowing the patient to remain awake or lightly sedated when appropriate.
Spinal anaesthesia involves administering anaesthetic medication around the spinal nerves to temporarily block sensation in the lower part of the body.
Epidural anaesthesia provides regional pain relief through medication administered into the epidural space around the spinal cord.
Perioperative anaesthesia care includes assessment, planning, monitoring and recovery support before, during and after surgery.
Preoperative anaesthesia assessment evaluates medical history and potential anaesthetic risks before a surgical procedure.
Postoperative pain management aims to control pain safely and support recovery following surgery.
Airway management involves maintaining safe breathing and oxygenation during anaesthesia and critical care.
Critical care support includes monitoring and management of seriously ill patients who may require advanced respiratory and cardiovascular support.
Pain management uses appropriate medical and anaesthetic techniques to control acute or procedure-related pain.
