It is being organised jointly by Society of Perioperative Physician Anaesthesiologists (SOPPA) and AIG informed Dr Sunil T Pandya, a member of SOPPA and Chief, Dept. of Anaesthesia, Perioperative Medicine & Critical Care, AIG Hospitals.
This conference has brought together perioperative physicians (anaesthesiologists), from around the globe, to explore the evolving field of perioperative medicine, which focuses on the comprehensive care of surgical patients, from preoperative assessment through postoperative recovery, either as day care procedures or in the Surgical Critical Care.
This is for the first time a conference on perioperative medicine was conducted as said by Dr.Sunil T Pandya, chief of Anaesthesia, perioperative medicine and critical care at AIG hospitals.
The meeting was opened by the director of AIG Hospital Dr G.V. Rao along with SOPPA office bearers.
The Advisor of SOPPA, Dr.Manimala Rao emphasised the expanded Role of the anaesthesiologist as perioperative Physician. Dr N. Satyanarayana, President of SOPPA and Dr Raja Nursing Rao, Secretary SOPPA reiterated Dr. Manimala’s views. Anaesthesiologists are invisible doctors and now they seek their due recognition.
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.
