    AbstractThe American Board of Anesthesiology (ABA) has been in existence since 1937 for the purpose of advancing the practice of anaesthesiology in the United States. It is a credentialling organization which requires anaesthesiology residency training, medical licensure, and successful completion of written and oral examinations in order for an individual physician to be granted a diploma. Residency training requires four years and must culminate with a satisfactory certificate of clinical competence. The written and oral examinations follow residency training. The ABA also issues subspecialty certificates in critical care medicine and pain management. There is a voluntary mechanism for diplomates to demonstrate continuing qualifications. This is accomplished by peer review and a written examination.
