At Vinmec, all surgical procedures adhere strictly to anesthesia protocols, safety guidelines, and checklists to minimize incidents and unwanted side effects.
By following each step in the anesthesia process, Vinmec prioritizes the application of ultrasound-guided regional anesthesia techniques, which have been proven by global studies to be safe and significantly reduce surgical mortality rates.
For obstetric cases, the hospital has established detailed management protocols and applied advanced regional anesthesia techniques, such as nerve blocks, quadratus lumborum blocks, and pudendal nerve blocks (spinal or epidural anesthesia). These techniques provide a pain-free childbirth experience for mothers, regardless of vaginal or cesarean delivery.
In particular, Vinmec has pioneered the use of the Erector Spinae Plane (ESP) block technique, which has achieved comprehensive pain relief without complications. This technique significantly reduces intensive care recovery time and eliminates postoperative and chronic pain in over 96% of cardiac surgery patients. This success has positioned Vinmec’s anesthesiology and pain management specialty as one of the global leaders in controlling intraoperative pain during open-heart surgeries without the use of morphine.
