Perioperative medicine emphasises the importance of an integrated, planned, and personalised approach to patient care before, during, and after any surgical procedure involving anaesthesia.

Most of us will need the care of an anaesthetist at some stage in our lives. We've created this information to help you feel more relaxed about having surgery under anaesthesia.

Find out why we're a recognised world leader in training, education, research, and setting clinical standards for our specialties; what we're doing to foster safe and high quality patient care.

One in five people in Australia and New Zealand will experience chronic – or persistent – pain at some stage in their lives.

Healthy doctors ensure a sustainable workforce that provides best patient care. Find out what we're doing to support our doctors' health and wellbeing, and the services and resources available to our members.

Many of the recent advances in anaesthesia, pain medicine and perioperative patient care have involved pioneering ANZCA-funded research conducted by our fellows. Take a look at what we've achieved; what we fund; and how to apply.

Participating in a continuing professional development (CPD) program is compulsory for specialist registration in Australia and New Zealand. Access to our world-leading CPD program is free for ANZCA and FPM fellows.

ANZCA fellows, trainees and staff can use this service to request material not available full-text, free-of-charge. This includes copies of articles, chapters from books or conference papers required for your research, patient care and learning.
