World Anaesthesia Day-2025
World Anaesthesia Day-2025
Theme this year is Anaesthesia in Health Emmergencies.
Any Health Emmergency- Natural Disaster,Calamity,Pandemics,Conflicts,Trauma,Essential Care.
Anaesthesiologist is seen every where.
Past few years,world has seen the Anaesthesiologist in forefront.
Covid Pandemic,Wars across borders- Gaza war,Ukraine- Russia war, Disasters like the Ahmedabad Air Crash,Natural Disasters like the Uttarakhand Flooding,...or Human Disasters in Kumbh Mela Stampede.....
Along with these Essential Health Emmergencies in Operation Theatre ,Trauma Care and Intensive Care .
Omnipresent.
I am a Freelance private Anaesthesiologist.
Mobile phone is ever ringing any time of the day,night,week,festivals,occasions......
" Fetal Distress,come immediately. "
" Road accident, come for intubation urgently ".
" Massive Bleeding, attend ASAP."
Wherever I am,whatever I am doing,.....
Tired,In Pain ,.....
Midnights.....
Weekends.....
An Anaesthesiologist needs to attend.
Many a times,my own kid has fallen down hurt or with high temperature ....had to keep my staff in hospital to take care of my dear ones and attend to Emmergencies.
Anaesthesia practice is challenging and very unpredictable.
Society does recognize the efforts of the people in scrubs and mask.
But it's appalling and frustrating to be called " Gas Doctors " even today when every Social Media shows Anaesthesiologist in so many different departments and fields.
Anaesthesia, a field which started with Dr WTG Morton ,administering Ether gas in Manchester Hospital and was practiced by Pharmacists and Surgeons....
Today,it has entered every field of Medicine.
Operation Theatres administering General Anaesthesia, Regional and Peripheral Anaesthesia to various Operative procedures,
Intensive Care
Trauma Care
Disasters Care
Natural and Human Calamity Care
Pain and Palliative care
Diagnostics and Interventional Care Medicine.....
In Future, this list will be endless.
Frontline ever.
Any Health Emmergencies Anywhere , everywhere...
Anytime,everytime.
Long Live Anaesthesia.
Happy World Anaesthesia Day to all my Anaesthesiologist colleagues all over .
16th October, 2025.
Dr Tripti Milind Galgali
Anaesthesiologist, Hubli.
