Vanderbilt Anesthesiololgy

Beginning in summer 2009, the Department of Anesthesiology now offers an Advanced Regional Anesthesia and Acute Pain Fellowship. Training emphasizes the perioperative management of patients using multimodal analgesia including neuroaxial and peripheral neural blockade, as well as other innovative approaches to acute pain management.  Over a 12-month period, fellows rotate through a broad range of clinical areas including outpatient, inpatient, pediatric, and third-world regional and acute pain management, in addition to training in pertinent aspects of chronic
pain management, TIVA anesthesia, and research.  Graduates of the program are expected to become highly skilled in regional and acute pain management from basic to the most challenging interventions through an extensive understanding of anatomy and multimodal analgesia.
