President's Message

Carrying the Torch of Champions

Dear Esteemed Members & My Colleagues,

It is with a heart full of pride and a deep sense of responsibility that I step into the role of President of the Indian Society of Anaesthesiologists, Nagpur City Branch.

We are not just starting a new tenure; we are continuing a legacy of excellence. We stand today as the Best City Branch in the Nation. The echoes of our resounding triumph at ISACON Maharashtra 2025 and ISACON National 2025 where we swept 9 State awards and 8 National awards are a testament to the relentless spirit of this fraternity.

But as they say, heavy is the head that wears the crown. These accolades are not a finish line, but a launchpad.

Our Vision for the Year: Green Minds, Safe Hands This year, our theme “Anaesthesiologists – Green Minds Behind Masks” reflects the evolution of our role. We are no longer just the silent guardians behind the drapes; we are conscious innovators. Our minds must be “green”- symbolizing sustainability, growth, and a humane consciousness that balances clinical precision with environmental responsibility.

Our mission for the year is an earnest pledge: “Safe Anaesthesia – Right of Every Mother and Child.” Every mother bringing life into this world, and every child trusting us with theirs, deserves absolute safety. Through rigorous workshops, simulation training, and public awareness, we will ensure this promise is kept in every OT across our city.

The Road to ISACON 2027 As we embark on this journey, we have a monumental goal on the horizon. The declaration of Nagpur as the host for ISACON 2027 is our next great challenge. This tenure will lay the foundation for that historic event. We must build collegiality, strengthen our infrastructure, and foster a culture of mentorship so that when the nation arrives at our doorstep in 2027, we are ready to dazzle them.

Our Action Plan:

  • 🌿 Eco-Conscious OTs: Aligning with our “Green” ethos to reduce biomedical footprint.

  • 👩‍👧 Maternal Safety: Focused CMEs and public outreach for Mother & Child care.

  • 📢 Public Visibility: amplifying the role of the Anaesthesiologist beyond the hospital walls.

  • 🤝 Unity for 2027: mobilizing every member, from seniors to residents, for the upcoming National Conference.

Let us uphold the dignity of our profession and continue to touch lives quietly, skillfully, and compassionately.

Let our minds stay green full of growth, innovation, and empathy even behind the masks that define us.

Long Live ISA.

Jai Hind.

From the Editors Desk

Dear members,

As ISA Nagpur stands tall with the “Best City Branch” laurels from both State and National levels, our responsibility grows. True leadership is not just about winning awards; it is about setting standards.

Our theme, “Green Minds Behind Masks,” places us at the intersection of patient safety and environmental stewardship. The “Green OT” initiative is our new frontier—minimizing waste, choosing low-GWP agents, and mastering low-flow anaesthesia.

This aligns perfectly with our mission: “Safe Anaesthesia – Right of Every Mother and Child.” We must ensure that the children we deliver today inherit a healthy planet tomorrow. Furthermore, as we gear up to host the monumental ISACON 2027, let us pledge to lay the groundwork for a sustainable, world-class event.

Let the dictum “First, do no harm” apply to both our patients and our planet. We dedicate this issue of eSense to you—the champions of today and the guardians of tomorrow.

Happy Reading!
