About the Doctor
Dr. Srirama Murthy is a board-certified anaesthesiologist specialising in perioperative and critical care medicine, providing safe, evidence-based anaesthesia for adult and paediatric surgical patients. He excels in regional anaesthesia, ultrasound-guided nerve blocks, multimodal analgesia, and enhanced recovery protocols that reduce postoperative pain and shorten hospital stays. His expertise includes airway management, sedation for procedures, invasive haemodynamic monitoring, and perioperative optimisation of patients with cardiac, respiratory, and metabolic comorbidities. Dr. Murthy is experienced in intensive care unit management, ventilator strategies, and postoperative pain services, collaborating closely with surgeons, intensivists and nursing teams to ensure continuity of care. He contributes to clinical governance through protocol development, morbidity audits, and simulation-based airway training. Committed to patient communication and safety, he explains anaesthesia plans clearly, discusses risks and alternatives, and tailors anaesthetic approaches to individual needs. He also participates in teaching and quality improvement projects aimed at improving perioperative outcomes and patient experience. He is committed to lifelong learning.
