The importance of high-quality anaesthetic care was underscored by Minister of Health Dato Seri Setia Dr Haji Mohd Isham bin Haji Jaafar at the opening ceremony of the first-ever ‘Anesthesia Conference: Anaesthesia Update 2023’, at The Empire Brunei on Sunday.
The minister said with advancement in anaesthesia, “surgery has now extended to increasingly complex procedures on patients who might previously have been denied operations based on age or illness”.
He said no patient, no matter how serious their condition, will ever be “too sick” for general anaesthesia or for urgently required surgery thanks to these advancements.
