Anesthesiology Lab
Machine-translated · View original
The lab manages the whole body of patients, from anesthesia for surgery to pain relief and intensive care.

AboutAbout the lab
Safely and painlessly, before and after surgery.
The lab works on anesthesia, which manages the patient's whole body before, during, and after surgery, and on the medical care surrounding it.
At Chiba University Hospital, the lab provides whole-body management for patients across a wide age range, from newborns to those over 100 years old, including cases with comorbidities.
The knowledge and skills in whole-body management and pain relief developed in the operating room extend to pain clinics, palliative care, intensive care, and painless labor (labor analgesia).
The lab's stated aim is to train anesthesiologists in the spirit of "One Step Beyond," who keep a spirit of inquiry in clinical practice.
