Case base anesthetic work-ups, audience engagement in developing the anesthetic plan-requires internet connection to operate polling program, I present a case that requires surgery/anesthesia, audience selects what happens next---based on majority selection, determines if patient survives! I review which choices I would make and why. This lecture is designed to be 1-2 hours. In a 1-hour program, we can look at 2-3 cases, longer time frame allows for more cases to review and more depth.
• Target audience: introductory to advanced (can be tailored to your audience) • Learning objectives: (1) Use critical thinking skills to identify real-life clinical case preparations for the peri-anesthetic period. (2) Interpretation of blood work, physical examination and history findings, monitoring vitals and waveforms to tailor discussion about case progression. (3) Learn how to interpret and distinguish between common arrythmia misunderstandings, emergency case peri-anesthetic and pain management
