Abstract


Anaesthesiology as a science has evolved over the years with rigorous research and innovations. The platform for this successful journey over the years was built on honest and purposeful achievements which paved the way for modern anaesthesia. Recently, a sudden surge has been seen in fraudulent research activities throughout the globe. Few of these misconducts do get exposed, but majority of them go unchecked, which can harm the mankind directly or indirectly.
