AINS is the specialist journal for anesthesiology, intensive care medicine, emergency medicine, and pain therapy. It provides up-to-date specialist knowledge and offers pure continuing education.

AINS has set itself the goal of always providing its readers—specialists and trainees in anesthesiology—with practical value and maximum benefit.

AINS focuses on the four pillars of anesthesia: in CME articles, reviews, and the top topic, which examines a question from multiple perspectives in each issue. The top topic is rounded off by summaries of international studies, case studies, myths and facts, practical tips, and more.
