Introduction |
|
| In 1962, Professor Okuaki removed from Tohoku
University and founded the basis of the Section
of Anesthesiology. In 1966, the Section of Anesthesiology
was raised to the Department of Anesthesiology
formally. In 1997, Professor Okuaki became Professor
Emeritus and Doctor Murakawa arrived at new Professor.
The Department of Anesthesiology has 20 allied
hospitals and 61 anesthetists. The anesthetists
participate in anesthetic management, intensive
care medicine, emergency medicine, pain clinic,
palliative medicine, and treatment for sleep apnea
syndrome. |

Research |
|
| 1. |
Examination of relationship between anesthetic
drugs and neurotransmitter in the brain
using a micro dialysis |
| 2. |
Drugs-induced effect on the action of
neuromuscular relaxant, Monitoring of the
degree of neuromuscular block |
| 3. |
Effect of partial liquid ventilation on
respiratory failure |
| 4. |
Nerve damage caused by hypernatremia and
carbon monoxide |
| Recently our
findings have been accepted in many foreign
international journals. |

|
Education |
|
| 1. |
Education for Students: Professor, assistant
professor, and assistants give lectures
on the students in the 4th grade. All staffs
in the Department of Anesthesiology of the
Fukushima Medical University take charge
of Bed Side Learning for the students in
the 5th grade (primary course). Staffs in
the allied hospitals as well as those in
the University give lectures on the Bed
Side Learning for the students in the 6th
grade (advanced course). |
| 2. |
Education for Residents: In the first
two years, residents study in the Department
of Anesthesiology of the University and
the allied hospitals (for more than one
year), in the Critical Care Medical Center
(six months), in the Department of Pulmonary
Medicine (three months). |
| 3. |
Lecture of Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation:
We instruct doctors, dentists, schoolteachers,
and the citizens in Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation. |
