We report on the experience of a 23-member Australian medical team in Banda Aceh, Indonesia, following the 2004 Boxing Day tsunami. Arriving 13 days after the tsunami that devastated the city, killed 100,000 of its inhabitants and injured thousands more, we carried out 130 surgical procedures in austere conditions over a 12-day period. Most surgery was peripheral, principally for plastic surgical or orthopaedic procedures to lower limb injuries. Intravenous ketamine anaesthesia was the technique of choice, with good surgical conditions and few significant side-effects.
我们报告了一支由23名成员组成的澳大利亚医疗队在2004年节礼日海啸后于印度尼西亚班达亚齐的经历。海啸重创了这座城市，造成10万居民死亡，数千人受伤，我们在海啸发生13天后抵达，在12天的时间里，在艰苦的条件下实施了130例外科手术。大多数手术是外周手术，主要是针对下肢损伤的整形外科或骨科手术。静脉注射氯胺酮麻醉是首选技术，手术条件良好，且几乎没有严重的副作用。
