The Comprehensive 2023 Anesthesiology Update

 

Cardiac, Regional, Office-Based, Thoracic, Obstetric, Neuro, and Pediatric

Anesthesiology Update held between May 8–12, 2023. 

 

• In the past year, there have been a number of very significant clinical changes that affect the practice of anesthesiology. This comprehensive CME program provides a special and timely opportunity for anesthesiologists, nurse anesthetists and others with interest in the field to hear directly from world-renowned specialists and master clinicians about these changes.

• Updates, best practices and new guidelines cover:

  • Myocardial injury after non-cardiac surgery
  • Advances in transfusion practices
  • The processed EEG: scientific foundation – practical application – clinical limitations
  • Coagulation monitoring during surgery
  • Non-invasive cardiac output monitoring in the perioperative period
  • Pharmacological considerations in the geriatric patient
  • Postoperative respiratory depression
  • Genomics to improve perioperative care
  • Total intravenous anesthesia: theoretical foundation and practical considerations
  • Best papers in the anesthesia literature from the past year
  • New developments in anesthetic pharmacology: hypnotics and analgesics
  • All things are poison: antidotes in anesthesia
  • Pros and cons of transpulmonary pressure measurement
  • Drugs for sedation: mixing everything together or not?
  • Successfully converting labor analgesia to cesarean anesthesia
  • Maternal cardiac arrest
  • Integrating technology for postpartum hemorrhage management
  • Drug testing in anesthesia: “prevention and protection” or “major risk for minimal gain”
  • The patients’ view on patient safety
  • Consensus statement on unrecognized esophageal intubation: published by the PUMA group (Project for Universal Management of the Airway)
  • Understanding differential analgesic efficacy: insights from practical patient phenotyping
  • Perioperative stroke: what is current?The format is engaging and attendees are encouraged to pose questions of the national and international experts who will be delivering the updates and education at this event.
