Events
Cadaveric Demonstration and Sono-anatomy of Lower Limb Blocks
The Department of Anaesthesia and Department of Anatomy have organized a Guest lecture titled “Cadaveric Demonstration and Sono-anatomy of Lower Limb Blocks” on 15th July 2025, from 8:30 AM to 12:00 PM at the Anatomy Dissection Hall. This academic event was organized to enhance the practical knowledge of postgraduate students, residents, and faculty in the field of regional anesthesia, Additionally special focus was given to ultrasound-guided lower limb blocks, in the department of Anaesthesiology & Critical Care, SMVMCH From 12pm to 01.00pm, specialty OT class room. The session was graced by Dr. Anis Fathima, Assistant Professor from Pondicherry Institute of Medical Sciences, Puducherry, who served as the guest speaker and lead demonstrator. Dr. Fathima brought her expertise in regional anesthesia and sonoanatomy, offering participants an in-depth understanding of the anatomical and sonographic landmarks critical for effective lower limb blocks. Nearly 30 postgraduates and 15 faculties have participated in the lecture.
The session included:
- A detailed anatomical orientation using cadaveric specimens, aiding in the visual and tactile understanding of the relevant structures.
- A live demonstration of sonoanatomy, highlighting the use of ultrasound to locate nerves and guide block placement.
- Interactive Q&A segments, where participants clarified clinical doubts and discussed challenges encountered in routine practice.
The session concluded with a vote of thanks and a token of appreciation presented to Dr.Anis Fathima for her valuable contribution. Overall, the program was a resounding success and added substantial value to the participants’ clinical skills and anatomical understanding.
Cadaveric Workshop on Ultrasound-Guided Interventional Pain Procedures
A Cadaveric Workshop on Ultrasound-Guided Interventional Pain Procedures was successfully conducted on 3rd August 2025 at the Anatomy Dissection Hall and College Auditorium of Sri Manakula Vinayagar Medical College and Hospital.
The workshop was a joint effort organized by the Department of Anatomy and the Department of Anaesthesia, in collaboration with the Musculoskeletal Ultrasound and Pain Society (MSKPS) as part of the 3rd International MSK Pain Congress.
The program featured renowned international and national faculty, who shared their expertise and hands-on skills in ultrasound-guided pain interventions. The event witnessed enthusiastic participation from delegates across various countries and states of India, making it a truly global academic platform.
This workshop provided an excellent opportunity for medical professionals to gain advanced knowledge, practical exposure, and networking experience in the rapidly evolving field of interventional pain management.
Quiz Program on “Airway”
The Department of Anaesthesiology organized a Quiz Program on “Airway” on 29th August 2025 at the Skill Lab. 36 post-graduate students actively participated in the event.
The quiz was designed to enhance the academic knowledge and clinical skills of the participants in the field of airway management—an essential aspect of anaesthesia practice. The program comprised multiple rounds including MCQs, case-based scenarios, and image identification, which tested both theoretical understanding and practical application.
The event was conducted in a highly interactive and engaging manner, encouraging teamwork, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills among the participants.
