Survey for Anaesthesia providers


Anaesthesia providers play a critical role in infection related care in the peri-operative pathway from surgical prophylaxis to post-operative care. However, the availability and roles of both physician anaesthetists and other trained anaesthesia providers is variable globally.
 
We are conducting a survey to better understand the resources, the scope and extent of anaesthesia providers globally across high, low- and middle-income settings. This will provide a baseline for developing bespoke and context specific interventions to optimise interdisciplinary infection related care in surgical pathways.

The survey is intended for Anaesthesia providers only.
