SYNOPSIS:
In this 2- week posting students will be exposed to the basic principles of general and
regional anaesthesia, skills of airway maintenance and basic life support. They will be
introduced to the management of the critically ill. Prerequisites to this module include
sound knowledge in the clinical and biomedical sciences. The teaching learning
methodology includes lectures, skill lab, computer assisted learning, pre-operative
assessment, practical procedures in the operation theatre, small group tutorials and
discussion, and basic life support hands-on and exam sessions. Assessment is based
on the continuous assessment and end-of-semester theory and OSCE examination.
2. OBJECTIVES:
On completion of this module students should be familiar with various airway
equipment, anaesthesia techniques and common drugs; be able to maintain an
airway and perform basic life support, manage patients perioperatively, and
communicate well with patients, their families and the multidisciplinary team.

1. identify and use different airway equipment and adjuncts.
2. perform different modes of maintaining an airway.
3. perform basic life support (BLS).
4. know the assessment and preoperative preparation of patients.
5. recognize various techniques of anaesthesia.
6. identify and describe common drugs used for anaesthesia and resuscitation.
7. identify the various methods of post operative pain management
8. demonstrate skills in breaking bad news with regards to anaesthetic related

Monitoring
b. Common Lecture- Breaking Bad News
1 hour lecture presented once a year and attended by all the fourth
year students
proper method of communicating with relatives regarding patient’s
poor prognosis and death
2. Skill lab and computer-assisted learning (CAL)
The students are divided into groups for these two three hour sessions.
a. In the Anaesthetic Skill Lab, a demonstration on airway management by a lecturer
is followed by the students’ practical session.
Managing a mannequin’s airway with various airway adjuncts
Intubating a mannequin
Introduction to spinal, epidural and combined spinal-epidural
needles
4. Simulation – central and peripheral venous cannulation
b. In the Computer Lab, the students undergo computer-assisted learning, where they
are guided through a scenario whereby they ‘manage’ an anaesthetised patient via
simulation.
3. Pre-operative assessment in the ward
The students follow a lecturer or medical officer on a pre-operative assessment in the
ward, where they learn the process of preparing a patient prior to anaesthesia and
surgery. The students are shown
how to conduct an anaesthetic assessment
how to examine a patient’s airway
how to manage common and simple medical problems prior to
anaesthesia and surgery
During this session, the students also select a patient each to follow through, for a
case write-up.
4. Practical
In the operating theatre (OT), the students are divided into small groups, and
allocated to various operating sessions, where they are shown how general and
regional anaesthesia are conducted.
The medical students are required to perform certain procedures which are recorded
in a logbook. These are
1. Intravenous cannulation
2. Applying monitors on a patient
3. Managing a patient’s airway with a face-mask and oropharyngeal airway
4. Intubating a patient
5. Certifying the correct placement of endotracheal tube
5. Understanding the conduct of anaesthesia
5. Small group tutorial
This takes place in the operating theatre to discuss topics that are covered and not
covered in the lectures. Special attention is given to:
1. Drugs used in general anesthesia.
Intravenous anaesthetic agents
Inhalational anaesthetic agents
Muscle relaxants
Opioids and non-opioids
Resuscitation drugs
Reversal agents
2. Monitoring of patients in OT.
3. General anaesthesia.
4. Regional anaesthesia
spinal
epidural
combined spinal-epidural
5. Peripheral nerve block
6. Basic Life Support
Upon starting this module, the students are given a Basic Life Support Course Manual
which has been prepared by the Department of Anaesthesiology and Intensive Care.
The BLS session is a one-day course which takes place during the second week of
the module to give ample time for the students to thoroughly read the manual.
The components of the session are
1. Demonstration and practical stations.
an overview lecture on the basics of BLS
how to correctly perform a one-person and two-person rescue on an
adult
how to correctly treat a conscious and unconscious adult choking
patient
how to correctly perform a one-person BLS on an infant
how to correctly treat a choking infant
2. Examination.
40 objective questions (one best answer format) on the basics of BLS,
which takes place the afternoon before the course
5 rotating practical stations assessing the skills mentioned above,
which takes place in the afternoon of the course.
Those who fail the objective paper can resit the exam the following afternoon.
The students who fail the practical assessment can retake the test
immediately afterwards. The students have to repeat the whole exam if they
fail either component of the repeat exam.
The students are awarded with a BLS Course Certificate after passing the exams.
Lecturers & Medical Officers in charge:
Various Lectures and Medical Officers, i.e. a rolling roster of Lectures and
Medical Officers
7. Small Group Discussion (SGD)
The students are divided into small groups, and each group is allocated a topic to
research for discussion during the second week. The four topics to be discussed are:
1. Dealing with death and dying patients
2. Dealing with brain dead patients and the issue of organ donation
3. Consent in Anaesthesia
4. Breaking bad news: Anaesthesia related complications
All groups are also required to demonstrate breaking bad news with regards to simple
clinical circumstances..
