Abstract

Abstract : Technological innovation has been closely intertwined with the growth of modern anesthesiology as a medical and scientific discipline. Anesthesia & Analgesia, the longest-running physician anesthesiology journal in the world, has documented key technological developments in the specialty over the past 100 years. What began as a focus on the fundamental tools needed for effective anesthetic delivery has evolved over the century into an increasing emphasis on automation, portability, and machine intelligence to improve the quality, safety, and efficiency of patient care.
