Students explore the application of anesthesia in specific practice areas and contexts. General, regional, and specialty areas of anesthesia are considered with specific reference to obesity, neonatal and geriatric anesthesia, cardiac pathology, cardiovascular disease, endocrine diseases, thoracic surgery, neuromuscular disease, neurosurgery, trauma, and crisis management. Students analyze cases, develop anesthetic plans and evaluate considerations for specific patient subsets. Prerequisites: There are no prerequisites for the course, but it is highly recommended that the student be a RRT, RN, MD or an equally qualified individual with at least one year of clinical experience prior to taking this course and have a strong foundation in Pharmacology such as that covered in HLTH 2511 or equivalent. Recommended: successful completion of ANES 4001, ANES 4011 and ANES 4021 is also recommended.
