Anaesthesia

The Department of Anaesthesiology and Critical Care at Christian Medical College and Hospital, Ludhiana has been actively involved in providing comprehensive care for the management of patients presenting with a wide variety of clinical conditions for the past 57 years.

In addition, this department is involved in the management of post-operative pain, acute and chronic pain syndromes, labor analgesias etc. We have an exclusive Pain Clinic which runs a busy OPD where patients with various pain syndromes are attended to. Various invasive procedures are done for the management of the same.

In addition, peripheral procedures such as pediatric and adult MRI’s, endoscopies, ultrasound-guided procedures etc are done under the expert guidance and care of an anaesthesiologist.

The department also runs a state of the art Intensive Care Unit which provides facilities for the management of critically ill medical and surgical patients. The ICU is manned by a group of skilled intensivists who are involved in the 24-hour care of critically ill patients. The ICU’s are equipped with the latest machinery and provide quality health care to the patients admitted there.

Beyond patient service, we are also involved in medical education. It actively participates in ensuring that patients are provided with safe and effective anesthesia for complex surgical problems. It has also been running a postgraduate programme (M.D. and D.A.) since 1962.
