All the office ears of SOPPA felt that Anesthesiologists though are highly skilled and play a very crucial in patient safety, are often ignored, and less recognized than their peer physicians because they work behind the scenes, their role is often misunderstood, and they don’t have the same level of public-facing interactions as surgeons or primary care doctors. Anesthesiologists are as competent doctors as their physician colleagues are more than 300 specialists from across the world participated in the Conclave. The organiser at AIG conducted two live workshops and deliberated various other aspects of the complex surgical patients coming with various comorbidities.

In Day two on Sunday,  the organisers are organising 4 workstations 1. Advanced Cardiac POCUS 2. Advanced Air-Way and Perioperative Ventilatory Goals. 3. CPET (Surgical Rehabilitation) 4. TIVA & TCI.
