Abstract
Non-operating room anaesthesia (NORA) describes anaesthesia provided outside a traditional operating room (OR). Due
to technological advancements, increasing requirement is there for providing anaesthesia beyond operating room, outside
of safe zones for anesthetist. It comes with lot of challenges like lack of team familiarity, limited preoperative evaluation, new locations,
inadequate monitoring devices and restricted access to patients. Anaesthesia at remote locations require extreme vigilance, more expertise,
knowledge about procedures.
