Anaesthesia in Hong Kong and the Faculty of Anaesthetists: 25 years of co-operation.
The development of anaesthetic services in Hong Kong started about five years after the Faculty of Anaesthetists, RACS, was founded. A nucleus of trained anaesthetists there sought assistance from the Faculty to establish adequate training posts and courses of instruction, and hence to provide consultants with an internationally accepted qualification. This paper describes the major features of the early decades of this development.
