Types of Anaesthesia

Anaesthetic Options We Offer

We understand that each patient and each procedure is unique. Our anaesthesiologists select and tailor the most appropriate technique always prioritising your safety, comfort, and the clinical requirements of your surgery.

General Anaesthesia

Induces a controlled state of unconsciousness and complete absence of sensation throughout the body used for major surgical procedures where the patient needs to be fully asleep. Carefully titrated and continuously monitored throughout the operation.

Regional Anaesthesia

Blocks sensation in a specific region of the body while the patient remains conscious or lightly sedated. Includes spinal, epidural, and peripheral nerve blocks commonly used for orthopaedic, obstetric, and lower limb procedures, with the benefit of reduced systemic side effects.

Local Anaesthesia & Sedation

Numbs a targeted small area for minor procedures, or combines sedation with local agents for monitored anaesthesia care (MAC). Ideal for day procedures and diagnostics with rapid recovery and minimal physiological disruption.
