The Cardiothoracic and Vascular Anesthesia (CTVA) unit established on 26 Falgun 2068 was formally upgraded to the Department of CTVA on 20 Asar 2073. The department uniformly provides specialized anesthesia services for patients with cardiac, thoracic and vascular problems in and out of Operation Theater.
