Introduction to pain management concepts and the use of ultrasound guided techniques in treatment.
Application of basic anesthesia principles to the practice of nurse anesthesia.
This course provides a thorough orientation to the clinical area and application of beginning anesthesia concepts to patients through simulation and precepted in-hospital assignments.
Students will present a critique of anesthetic management of selected cases or topics related to their doctoral project in anesthesia for peer review. A review of the literature and application of the current research is to be included in the presentations.
