Brief Summary   Anaesthesiology is a modern speciality amalgamating medical knowledge and surgical skills to provide a range of services which include perioperative care, parturient care including labour pain relief, critical care services and life saving resuscitative practices in the emergency, trauma centres, ICU, MRI suites and wards.   Anaesthesiologists provide optimal surgical field in the operating theatres using various modalities like general anaesthesia technique, regional anaesthesia techniques including central neuraxial blockade and peripheral nerve blocks, monitored anaesthesia care and IV sedation. This study helps us to determine the level of awareness about Anaesthesiology and its pragmatic aspects among the medical students and house surgeons in our institution. This study also helps us to decide whether students and house surgeons require more exposure to Anaesthesiology during their medical training.
