The course emphasizes: 1) perioperative patient care with a focus on intraoperative anesthetic and non-operative pain management, 2) using scientific principles and practices of anesthesiology to develop individual patient plans, and 3) developing technical skills involved with airway management, tracheal intubation, and IV infusion therapy. This elective requires weekly written assignments and a final exam, submitted through Sakai.
