Abstract

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.
