Comprehensive Review of Anesthesiology, an online video CME program, highlights the core concepts of conducting anesthesia and stresses the implementation of perioperative best practices to facilitate enhanced recovery after surgery.
Directed by Jeffrey S. Berger, MD and Eric R. Heinz, MD, this review includes case-based lectures covering a broad range of topics, including preoperative assessment and evaluation, cardiac anesthesia, the opioid crisis, robotic anesthesia, ERAS, physician impairment, and more. It’s contininuing medical education that will help you to better:
- Recognize scientific principles that guide basic anesthetic management
- Formulate a thoughtful anesthetic plan for a variety of subspecialties
- Compare the techniques and technology available at your facility with best practices
- Plan for incorporation of new knowledge into routine practice
Learning Objectives
At the completion of this course, you should be able to:
