In the sense of a central interdisciplinary service provider, the department serves all University Hospital Graz departments and divisions that carry out interventions and those in which operations are conducted. We follow our patients from the preoperative examination to postoperative monitoring in specially equipped units. This continuous supervision in the perioperative environment is an integral component of the safest care for our patients during their entire hospital stay. Over 37,000 anesthetics employing the entire range of modern procedures and techniques are administered annually in all surgical and diagnostic areas.
The uniqueness and the added value of our department are the result of the symbiosis between patient care, research and education. The department is jointly operated by the Medical University of Graz and the Styrian Hospital Association (KAGes). This interdisciplinary cooperation between both providers at the University Hospital Graz site is also reflected on our website. More information on patient care can be found at the University Hospital Graz website.
