Anesthesiology and Resuscitation Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A department that supports perioperative care while conducting research from basic science to clinical practice.
AboutAbout the lab
Turning clinical questions into research.
The Department of Anesthesiology and Resuscitation provides advanced, safe perioperative care through surgical anesthesia, intensive care, and pain clinic, and also puts a strong emphasis on research.
Research themes range widely from basic to clinical, including blood flow analysis, the effects of anesthetics, fibrosis, chronic pain, and perioperative anaphylaxis.
Research conferences and journal clubs are held, along with an international research conference with Columbia University in the United States.
Regardless of research experience, the lab has a support system for turning the "whys" that arise in clinical practice into research, and it also supports study abroad.
Key terms
- Perioperative period
- The whole series of periods surrounding surgery, including before and after the operation. Anesthesiology is involved in managing this period
- Fibrosis
- A change in which fibrous components increase in tissue, making it stiff and reducing its function
- Enteral ventilation
- A new respiratory management method that performs ventilation in the intestine. Its application to hypoxia is being explored

ResearchResearch themes
The lab aims to connect issues that arise in clinical practice to basic research, clinical research, and international collaborative research. It takes on a wide range of themes from basic to clinical, from cardiovascular, respiratory, and neuroscience research to perioperative medicine.
*Illustrative imageBlood flow analysis in the cardiovascular system
The lab measures actual blood flow using echocardiography and MRI images, and performs simulation analysis with Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). Topics include the relationship between blood flow in the left atrium and fibrosis, optimal flow in ECMO, and hemodialysis shunt flow.
*Illustrative imageEffects of anesthetics in the perioperative period
Using clinical specimens and experiments with animal models of disease, the lab investigates the effects of anesthetics during the perioperative period. Work includes the action of propofol on esophageal cancer cells, suppression of angiogenesis by lidocaine, and management of anesthetic concentrations during cardiopulmonary bypass.
*Illustrative imageResearch on tissue fibrosis
This is basic research on suppressing fibrosis caused by myofibroblasts to prevent decline in tissue function. It is carried out while holding conferences at the Research Institute of Environmental Medicine on the Higashiyama Campus.
*Illustrative imageVentilation through the intestine (enteral ventilation)
This research uses perfluorocarbon to investigate ventilation in the intestine. The lab is exploring its application to hypoxia as a new respiratory management method, and the results were published in iScience in 2023.
