Awards & Honors received by Dr. R.N. Kalra

 Anesthesia is a medical specialty concerned with the administration of medication, to aid pain management through sedation or blocking of sensation. This allows patients to undergo complex surgery and other procedures without the distress or pain, they would experience otherwise. Prior to surgery, the anesthetist interviews the patient to determine the best combination of drugs and dosages and the degree to which monitoring is required to ensure a safe and effective procedure.

The anesthesiology department at Kalra provides expert care in the operation theaters, intensive care units, pain clinic, and casualty. It is equipped with latest anesthesia machines, ventilators, invasive and non-invasive monitors, and fiberoptic endoscopes to manage all types of patients during a surgery. The hospital also utilizes latest medical technology to monitor the level of anesthesia called the Bispectral Index Monitor (BIS), a device that measures the effects of anesthesia on a patient's level of consciousness, by monitoring the patient's brain activity. This enables the doctors to determine the right dose based on various factors like age, weight, and medical history. BIS monitoring makes it safer for our patients, and helps to ease anxiety before surgery.
