Disaster situations, such as earthquakes, floods, or armed conflicts, might happen in areas where access of a regular operating room might be hours away or not available at all. Golden Hour: Delivering mobile Anesthesia during the golden hour can be a totally different experience from customary anesthesia practices in a regular operating room.It requires setting up a field/forward surgical teams with its organization and structure. Total Intravenous anesthesia gained popularity in crisis and combat situations and has been documented as a safe method in crisis situations.Anesthesia configured medic bag: Is a modified medic bag that can be utilized to contain the most commonly used Anesthesia supply material in a portable way. Conclusion: In reviewing the knowledge of how to provide anesthesia in crisis and disaster situations we conclude that there is evidence that anesthesia can be safely and efficiently delivered in a remote areas with limited tools and technology.en-USPublisher PDF posted as allowed by the publisher's author rights policy at http://www.avicennajmed.com/contributors.asp#cp.AnesthesiaAnesthesia, IntravenousDisaster MedicineAnesthesiologyMobile Anesthesia: Ready, Set, Pack, and GoJournal Articlehttps://escholarship.umassmed.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1124&context=anesthesiology_pubs&unstamped=1https://escholarship.umassmed.edu/anesthesiology_pubs/1083209111anesthesiology_pubs/108
