सामुदायिक सेवाएं/ आउटरीच कार्यक्रम:
आउटरीच सेवाओं के लिए पटना एम्स में आयोजित कैंपस में विभाग के सदस्यों का महत्वपूर्ण योगदान रहता है। एनेस्थीसिया सेवाओं (लाइफ लाइन) को बिहार के कस्बों में पहुंचाने के साथ ही ट्रेनों में भी इसकी सुविधाएं प्रदान की जाती है।

शिक्षण एवं प्रशिक्षण:

इस विभाग का उद्देश्य सभी मरीजों को गुणवत्तापूर्ण एनेस्थीसिया सेवाएं प्रदान करना तथा अपने रेजिडेंट्स, तकनीशियन और कर्मचारियों के साथ सामान्य समुदायों को बेहतर शिक्षण और प्रशिक्षण प्रदान करना है। हमारा उद्देश्य वैज्ञानिक समुदायों को गुणवत्तापूर्ण अनुसंधान कार्यों, उनके प्रकाशन और प्रस्तुतिकरण के माध्यम से सहायता प्रदान करना भी है।

पोस्टग्रेजुएट के विद्यार्थी पोस्ट ग्रेजुएट पाठ्यक्रम (एमडी) के लिए अपना नामांकन कर सकते हैं। यह पाठ्यक्रम तीन वर्ष के अवधी का होता है और इसमें एक थिसिस शामिल रहता है। विभाग वर्तमान में एक वर्ष में 20 विद्यार्थियों का नामांकन करता है जिसके लिए साल में दो बार जनवरी और जुलाई में विद्यार्थियों का चयन किया जाता है। यह चयन आईएनआई सीईटी परीक्षा पर आधारित होता है।

सभी पोस्टग्रेजुएट विद्यार्थियों को सभी प्रकार के सर्जिकल विशेषज्ञताओं, इंटेंसिव देखभाल, प्री एनेस्थीसिया क्लिनिक और दर्द निवारण क्लिनिक की जानकारियों से अवगत कराया जाता है। जूनियर रेजिडेंट्स के पाठ्यक्रम में शामिल एनेस्थेटिक प्रक्रिया के लिए विभाग द्वारा दिशा निर्देश निर्धारित किया गया है। इस उद्देश्य की पूर्ति के लिए एचओडी के दिशा-निर्देश में नामित शैक्षणिक संकाय कार्य प्रभारी उपलब्ध हैं। अंतिम एमडी के परीक्षा के लिए थिसिस लिखना अनिवार्य है। हमारे शैक्षणिक कार्यक्रम में सेमिनार, जर्नल क्लब, चिकित्सकीय मामलों पर चर्चा, शिक्षक और गेस्ट लेक्चर्स ( सप्ताह में 4 दिन) जैसे विषय शामिल हैं। संकाय के सभी सीनियर और जूनियर रेजिडेंट्स शिक्षाप्रद और परस्पर संवादात्मक शैक्षणिक गतिविधियों में नियमित रूप से भाग लेते हैं। इसके साथ ही मुख्य रूप से नियमित ऑपरेटिंग रूम और इंटिसिव देखभाल यूनिट संबंधित शैक्षणिक कार्यक्रमों का भी संचालन किया जाता रहा है।

To ensure quality in clinical care, teaching and research aspects, new initiatives taken this year included starting the acute pain services, and non-operating room anaesthesia as described. We have actively been involved in teaching and training at the city, state, national and international levels. The department can proudly claim to have the maximum number of publications in scientific journals this year as compared to any other anaesthesia department in the whole of East India. Papers presented by the department has won awards even in an international forum.
