Biography

Shagun Bhatia Shah is a motivated and dedicated anaesthesiologist with seventeen years of experience in anaesthesia and over 50 publications in various international peer reviewed journals. Her interest in oncoanaesthesia drove her to practice as a consultant at RGCI&RC. Her specific interests include recent advances in anaesthesia like USG-guided nerve blocks, difficult airway and anaesthesia for robotic surgery. She is certified in TOE (Trans oesophageal echocardiography) use and utilizes it for managing cardiac patients undergoing non-cardiac oncosurgery. She has successfully conducted clinical trials like “Optic Nerve Sheath Diameter Guided Non-Invasive ICP Measurement In Patients Undergoing Robotic Surgery In Steep Trendelenberg Position” and is presently conducting the trial “TOE for intraoperative goal directed fluid therapy in cardiac patients undergoing non cardiac oncosurgery and robotic surgery in ST-position” among others. She is ready to walk that extra mile with post- operative and terminally ill cancer patients to alleviate their pain and suffering
