Personal Statement:

The past nine years in the field of Anaesthesia and Intensive Care, saw me initially training in these fields in premier institutes in India and then further working in various positions in In- dia and abroad. This journey saw me serving in a number of different Hospitals and Teaching Institutions each catering to a broad spectrum of patients with many institutes delivering cer- tain specific specialist services.

As an individual I have an undying spirit to gain further knowledge and acquire finer skills and expertise to further enhance patient safety and comfort and to deliver high end evidence based healthcare whist always ensuring the optimal use of resources. This also directly re- flects on the flow of knowledge to my juniors towards which I always focus a significant amount of time and energy. In every position I served, having supportive and comfortable working relationships with my peers was always one of my strengths and I found myself working well as a team member.

Over time, I have also found myself at my best, working in high-pressure environments and caring for patients experiencing extreme physiological and pathological stresses of complex surgeries in the peri-operative scenario and/or of critical illnesses on an Intensive Care Unit. I have always envisioned serving various positions where I am part of a world class team that develops and delivers evidence based clinical services with an emphasis on patient outcome and safety with improved efficiency.

Having trained and worked as an Anaesthesiologist and an Intensivist at leading institutions in India and just completed a tenure that involved working and training in London on my first ever job abroad, I am on the lookout for further challenges to expand my personal and profes- sional horizons. With the ongoing professional and academic advancement I’m pursuing, I intend to use my academic acumen and my entire experience to enhance the services provid- ed by any institution interested in absorbing me.

Clinical Experience

My role as a Clinical Fellow/Speciality Doctor in London had given me the opportunity to continue to expand my experience in the delivery of safe anaesthesia to patients of various surgical specialities as well as in the care of patients on an Intensive Care Unit in settings quite different from those in India. I do seem to have successfully adapted to the new settings and continued to deliver patient care at high standards as per the feedback received during my last appraisal on the job and my self assessment. The experience gained from my earlier positions in India included an extensive exposure to numerous major and minor, elective and emergency surgery with a significant percentage of the patients having a range of co-morbidities requiring careful planning and a combination of anaesthetic techniques to ensure safe peri-operative care. Through my sessions in pre-assessment in various institutes, I was part of the team responsi- ble for optimising patients and ensuring a streamlined and efficient patient journey prior to their operation. My anaesthetic sessions involved regularly anaesthetising patients for Neuro- surgical, Vascular, Orthopaedic, Urologic, Gynaecological & Obstetric, Otolaryngological, Paediatric, Onco-surgical, Bariatric, Oro-maxillofacial, Robotic and Plastic and reconstruc- tive procedures as well as General and Paediatric surgery patients. The case mix included both major inpatient and day care cases requiring a range of anaesthetic techniques including advanced regional anaesthetic techniques. I have had to work through long theatre sessions enabling me to nurture a team based approach to work which in turn helped in improving staff efficiency, staff morale and the maintenance of various patient safety standards all aim- ing to improve patient outcome.

In my various capacities in various institutes I have put in an extra effort in the following areas of interest:

Regional Anaesthesia

My interest in regional anaesthesia started very early in my career. As a senior resident at KLE HOSPITAL I received excellent training in traditional landmark approaches to regional blockade. Later, having attended a number of lectures and workshops including a certification course in USG-RA, I passionately applied my knowledge of anatomy and sonoanatomy and utilised my interests to introduce ultrasound guided nerve blocks in my department in Lour- des Hospital. As a result ASA grade 3& 4 patients with complex medical problems could have their operations under regional anaesthesia safely, effectively and comfortably and fur- ther more peri-operative delivery of analgesia took a huge leap in the right direction. Over the last two years of my tenure at Lourdes Hospital, I contributed significantly to the furthering of the practice of USG guided regional anaesthesia and supervised and taught all basic ultrasound guided blocks to all my interested colleagues as well as all trainees at the institute. Further down the line, I was part of a teaching workshop as faculty in training in- house consultants and trainees in Northwick Park Hospital of London Northwest University Hospitals in London. Feedback from colleagues and postgraduate trainees suggest that they got excellent awareness and exposure to the various techniques, enough to change their prac- tise for the better.

Intensive care

In my last job, being a Member of the Faculty of Intensive Care Medicine (MFICM), salient critical care work includes attending and assisting all ITU consultant led ward rounds, being available to ITU fellows for senior advice and for the day to day management of the patients on the unit. It also involves working with the consultants to cover ward referrals and critical care transfers (both intra and inter hospital transfers) as well as delivering critical care sup- port for the emergency department, for all cardiac arrest, for all major haemorrhage and trauma calls and radiology transfers and procedures. I also provide airway and anaesthetic cover for the ITU team and wards during on call hours. Intensive care sessions I had in India, involved delivery of optimised critical care to patients admitted to the General Medical as well as speciality ICUs (Cardiology, Nephrology, Medical Gastroenterology, Neurosurgical and Neuromedical) requiring Level 2 and Level 3 care. This was on a rotational basis (one week every month) on my last job in India. I was however involved in the care of most post- operative patients requiring Level 2 and Level 3 care on almost a daily basis because of my personal interest and my firm belief that an Anaesthetists’ role extends a great deal into the post operative period.

At the bedside my advanced skills and training in Critical & Intensive Care that I employed included: advanced airway management techniques, bronchoscopies, placement of centrally and peripherally inserted central line catheters under ultrasound guidance, arterial line se- curement, advanced monitoring, ionotrope and vasopressor management and advanced venti- latory management including prone ventilation. My interest in ultrasound in general had me pioneering the regular use of bedside ultrasound in the ICUs of Lourdes Hospital as well as for the patient referrals in the Emergency department. This involved the employment of lung ultrasound, trans-thoracic echocardiography and the E-FAST scan for the management of var- ious case scenarios. The practise was effectively extended to my work in London. Trauma ; Acute and Remote Anaesthesia

I have always been involved in the care of critically ill and major trauma patients, employing the art of triaging followed by accurate protocolled examination and administration of treat- ment decisively and rapidly. Specific skills employed involved emergency airway manage- ment including percutaneous cricothyroidotomies, emergency vascular access including ve- nous cut downs and intercostal drains placements on an emergency basis and region specific ultrasound guided nerve blocks or central neuraxial blocks to provide pain relief in trauma patients. My exhaustive anaesthetic training has given me confidence to manage most anaes- thetic emergencies that an acute operative list may provide, including major neurosurgical and vascular cases, as well as in the practise of remote site anaesthesia e.g. for radiological procedures etc.. I am often involved in the pre-assessment and pre-optimisation of emergency patients with life threatening conditions. I have frequently worked in an emergency theatre, where a high turn-over of theatre personnel and surgeons always exists and I have been able to effectively work with such a multidisciplinary team, to provide optimal patient care with high efficiency in the emergency setting. This demonstrates that I have acquired excellence in team leadership and communication skills. I also enjoy supervising trainees attending to these acute cases to increase their confidence in the management of emergencies out of hours and to improve their clinical management skills in general. During my on-call commitment at the various institutes, I made it a point to supervise trainees as they actively got involved in the delivery of safe peri-operative care to emergency cases for all surgical specialities including obstetrics and in the management of patients in the Intensive Care setting.

Alongside my clinical commitments I have organised Continous Professional Development programmes, workshops and conferences in all of the institutions I worked at, which enabled me to share my experiences with my colleagues and my contemporaries and in turn get essen- tial feedback from them. These endeavours also helped trainees posted with me to acquire new skills and knowledge. I made a personal effort at all times including out of hours to help trainees in the field in any way possible when it came to acquiring new knowledge and skills. The following are the different surgical specialities I dealt with in my various capacities and the clinical experience I gained in each speciality. Neurosurgery

With a neurosurgical team at Lourdes Hospital doing a wide range of procedures, I was in- volved with many of the procedures performed because of a special interest in Neuroanaes- thesia. This involved delivery of tailored anaesthesia for craniotomies, craniectomies, awake craniotomies, procedures requiring monitoring with SSEPs, MEPs etc., a wide spectrum of spine (cervical, thoracic, lumbar and sacral) surgeries, endoscopic endonasal procedures and aneursymal surgery to name a few.

Vascular Surgery

With Vascular Surgery being a department in the process of developing in Lourdes hospital, I showed considerable interest and went about employing my advanced skills in delivering customised anaesthesia as well as in the post-operative management of patients subjected to various advanced vascular surgeries including Peripheral Vascular bypass procedures, Open Thoracic and Abdominal Aneurysmal surgeries, Hybrid Surgeries, Endovascular repairs and various Venoplastic procedures. I was regularly involved in the management of vascular surgery cases requiring significant post procedural ICU care. My skills in performing bedside trans-thoracic echocardiography was quite handy in the management of those patients with significant cardiac illness; something that commonly co-exists in this cohort of patients. Orthopaedic and Joint Replacement/Corrective Surgery Lourdes Hospital having a very busy Orthopaedic department, I was involved in various elec- tive and emergency procedures. I was instrumental in introducing ultrasound guided nerve blocks from inter-scalene, supra-clavicular blocks and individual nerves blocks of the upper limb to femoral nerve, adductor canal and individualised nerve blocks of the lower limb ei- ther to facilitate surgery itself or for intra-operative and post-operative analgesia. In associa- tion with one of the Orthopaedic Consultants and a Neurosurgeon, we were delivering ultra- sound guided trans-laminar steroid injections for selected cases of Low Back Pain with good results.

Urology and Renal transplantation

Lourdes Hospital has an active urology list with regular renal transplant cases. I have anaes- thetised both donors and recipients alongside my mentors. I further provided peri-operative care independently for all types of urological procedures including those in renal transplant recipient patients. Further, I introduced a new service for patients with renal failure un- dergoing vascular access surgery at Lourdes Hospital. These patients having signifi- cant co-morbidities have a high risk of morbidity and mortality, Regional anaesthe- sia is an excellent alternative and hence I employed region specific ultrasound guided nerve blocks.

Gynaecological Surgery and Obstetrics

My experience in this field covers all aspects of patient care, from pre-assessment and prepa- ration to anaesthetising and post operative care. During my time at KLE hospital as a trainee and in my capacity at the other hospitals, I regularly anaesthetised for major gynaecological surgery including laparoscopic procedures as well as obstetric cases. I have been trained in labour analgesia and have delivered the same to a number of patients effectively and have further successfully managed a number of peri-operative obstetric complications. On my last job in Lourdes Hospital, I was regularly involved in the care of Obstetric patients as a result of my flexible work sessions.

Head and Neck Surgery

I have staffed major Otolaryngologic, Maxillofacial and Head and Neck Onco-surgery lists on a regular basis. In the process, I gained extensive experience of the management of very challenging airways in both elective and emergency patients with difficult airways for major/ minor surgery. This included patients with massive retrosternal thyroids (many requiring sternotomies), patients requiring tracheal reconstruction and patients with TMJ ankylosis. My advanced airway skills include blind nasal intubations, fibreoptic intubations and tra- cheostomies and in the process I have had the opportunity to teach my trainees the skills I gained. On my last job in Lourdes Hospital, I was also involved in delivering tailored anaes- thesia to children scheduled for cochlear implants which has challenges of their own. Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery

At KLE hospital which is a major plastics tertiary referral centre, where I carried out a major proportion of my training,. I used to anaesthetise these cases on a regular basis as well as during my on-calls for emergency surgeries. I continued to anaesthetise such patients and my case mix covered all aspects of major reconstructive surgery including cleft-lip, palate, breast and other cosmetic corrective procedures, both adult and paediatric trauma, reconstruction following resection in Oncosurgery involving free-flaps, pedicle flaps etc. in addition to max- illofacial surgery. I utilised a variety of anaesthetic techniques including intravenous sedation and regional anaesthesia under ultrasound guidance, which I enjoyed teaching to the trainees who attended my lists. I was also involved in delivering anaesthesia at a private Plastic Surgery centre that mainly dealt with hair transplant under regional anaesthetic techniques. Oncosurgery including Robotic Procedures

Although being involved in delivering Onco-anaesthesia in all the institutions I worked in, I was exposed to numerous complex specific Oncosurgical procedures in the state government cancer centre (Malabar Cancer Centre) where I worked for some time.The case mix included Upper GI, Lower GI, Urogenital, Limb salvage, Head and Neck and Breast once-surgery and reconstructive surgeries along with complex surgeries including hepatic and skull based metastatic resections. My experience was further enhanced in London, where I was involved in the peri-operative care of patients of the world renowned St.Marks hospital that performed various complex procedures including robotic procedures in the area of Colorectal surgery. General Surgery including Bariatric and Thoracic Surgery From my training and onto my work in various institutions and my work as a freelance anaes- thetist has given me a really handy experience in the delivery of tailored anaesthesia for a va- riety of laparoscopic and open conventional general surgeries. Further with experts in the surgical team in Lourdes Hospital, I had the opportunity to be involved in the peri-operative care of a number of bariatric procedures as well as a number of thoracic procedures (lung based procedures as well as upper GI procedures) which specifically required the delivery of one lung ventilation.

Paediatric Surgery

Having being trained initially in KLE and later working in institutes performing paediatric surgery, I was exposed to the delivery of tailored anaesthesia to children of all ages from neonates onwards for a range of surgeries including correction of congenital diaphragmatic hernias, trachea-oesophageal fistulas, hernias, intussceptions, cleft lips and palates etc. I also gained quite an experience with anaesthetising numerous children subjected to Otolaryngolo- gy procedures.
