he Anaesthesia department is an essential, integral member of the
surgical operating team in theatre. At Muscat Private Hospital we
aim to provide the very safest anaesthesia which is tailored to
suit your projected surgery and medical status. Anaesthesia can
be general, regional or local and the form of anaesthesia best for
you will be discussed by the anaesthetist at his pre-operative visit.
Your care during surgery will be of the highest standard and the
consultant anaesthetist is in constant attendance during the whole
of the procedure. After the operation your anaesthetist will manage
your pain relief in order that your recovery is as comfortable as
possible. The Anaesthetic department is also responsible for providing
a 24-hour epidural service for the labour ward. With a working epidural
in place, labour is no longer a painful burden for the expectant
mother. For those patients requiring that extra bit of care and
monitoring, the High Dependency Unit, with one-on-one nursing care,
is available under the professional management of the department.
