Hotten, one of the founders of the Australian Society of Anaesthetists.
Dr. Ivor Hotten was appointed as Honorary Anaesthetist to Royal Prince Alfred Hospital, Sydney, in
1930, and became the hospital’s tutor in anaesthetics in that same year. He later was appointed as
the Lecturer in Anaesthetics to the University of Sydney, and taught generations of medical students
the basic principles of anaesthesia.
Dr. Hotten was a founder member of the Society and, in 1952, a Foundation Fellow of the Faculty.
He was elected to Fellowship of the English Faculty in 1951. When the Section of Anaesthetics, NSW
Branch of the BMA, was inaugurated in 1934, Ivor Hotten was the first President of the Section.
During his long years of undergraduate and postgraduate teaching, Dr. Hotten has made a notable
contribution to the development of anaesthesia in Australia.
