Institute for Anesthesiology and Perioperative Medicine

Our team will look after you throughout the entire phase of your operation. This begins with the preparation, usually in the anesthesia consultation, continues with the actual anesthesia and only ends with the completion of care after the operation. The early detection and treatment of iron deficiency and anemia as part of patient blood management is also very important. We look after you even before your operation in order to initiate the best possible treatment.
