ANST 741H Anesthesiology - PeaceHealth Sacred Heart Continuity

Credits: 8
In this continuity course, students receive supervised instruction and gain experience with the clinical aspects of anesthesiology by working in the operating room with an attending faculty physician. This elective requires weekly written assignments and a final exam, submitted through Sakai. The course emphasizes:

perioperative patient care with a focus on intraoperative anesthetic and non-operative pain management,
using scientific principles and practices of anesthesiology to develop individual patient plans, and
developing technical skills involved with airway management, tracheal intubation, and IV infusion therapy.

PeaceHealth Sacred Heart Medical Center has 2 hospitals: University District in Eugene and RiverBend in Springfield, OR, approximately 100 miles south of the main OHSU campus. Students participating in rotations in this community will work one on one with their attending with increased autonomy.
