The mission of Anesthesiology is to protect the lives and safety of patients during the perioperative period, especially during surgery. During surgery under general anesthesia, of course, the patient is put to sleep so that they do not feel pain, but in addition, we help them overcome the stress that the surgery and anesthesia put on their bodies, so that the surgery can be completed safely. That is the goal of the Anesthesiology. For this reason, an Anesthesiology creates an optimal anesthesia plan according to the general condition before surgery and the type of surgery, and recovers from the effects of anesthesia after surgery with the help of various devices and drugs during surgery. Appropriate management until In particular, our hospital has many major surgeries and surgeries for patients with high severity, and we also have an emergency lifesaving center, so we have an extremely large number of emergency surgeries. In the Anesthesiology of our hospital, all the Anesthesiology staff who are proficient in management of serious injuries and emergency systemic management handle more than 6,000 cases of surgical anesthesia annually.
The Anesthesiology also plays a central role in the general intensive care unit (GICU) at our hospital. When undergoing surgery that has a large impact on the body, such as Cardiovascular Surgery surgery or extended radical surgery for cancer, an Anesthesiology who is proficient in intensive care at the GICU provides meticulous systemic management based on a consistent policy throughout surgery and postoperative care. Furthermore, for internal medical diseases and other diseases that require systemic management and intensive care, the Anesthesiology plays a central role when entering the GICU and provides treatment in cooperation with the doctors in charge of each department. Currently, not only doctor specializing in anesthesia, but also emergency doctors and internal medicine doctors are dedicated to the GICU, enabling more diversified management.
Experts who are proficient in systemic management protect the safety of patients.

Notice of medical research
After being reviewed by the ethics committee of our hospital, we decided to conduct the following medical research.
STUDY TITLE "A Multicenter Registry of Acute Kidney Injury in Critically Ill Patients"
| Research outline and purpose | Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication in critically ill patients requiring intensive care, but there are insufficient data on prognosis and clinical practice. When AKI becomes severe, renal replacement therapy may be used in some cases, but no other effective treatment for AKI has been found. In this study, we will collect information that will serve as the basis for future research aimed at improving the quality of AKI care by investigating the current state of medical care for AKI in severely ill patients in Japan. |
|---|---|
| Research period | July 1, 2016 - December 31, 2016 |
| Subject of research | Critically ill adults (18 years and older) admitted to the ICU. |
| Data to handle | Medical information from admission to the intensive care unit to discharge from the hospital |
| Expected results | Describe the actual clinical practice and prognosis of AKI, collect information to search for effective treatment, and build a research base. |
| Personal information protection system | Researchers do not directly handle personal information in this research, and it is strictly stored at each medical institution. |
| Matters to be understood | We will collect biometric information (blood pressure, blood test data, etc.) used for medical treatment in the ICU, information on renal replacement therapy such as hemodialysis, and information on admission and discharge (date, outcome). |
| Handling of data after completion of research | Collected data will be stored as electronic data for at least 10 years after publication as a paper. |
| Browsing research plans | Materials related to the research plan and research methods can be obtained and viewed by the principal investigator, but only to the extent that they do not hinder the protection of the personal information and intellectual property of other research subjects. |
