The scenarios will include one case with only physiologic monitors, one case with only echocardiogram recordings, and one combined case with recordings from both physiologic monitors and echocardiograms. The Department of Anesthesiology has a robust Oral Boards curriculum, with many faculty serving as ABA board examiners and one former President of the ABA on staff. This is particularly important for core cases and low-frequency, high-stakes procedures and encounters. Basic scenarios using high fidelity simulation (hypotension due to blood loss, hypoxia due to bronchospasm, etc.) Two pediatric anesthesiologists scored each scenario by key action checklist. The Anesthesia Simulation Program fulfills the training requirement for Part IV of the Maintenance of Certification in Anesthesiology Program (MOCA). This simulation was created as part of our core anesthesiology simulation curriculum for residents and fellows. the sig also maintains a standardized, national curriculum of disseminated simulation activities including within interprofessional education, crisis resource management training related to pediatric anesthesiology as well as the development of standardized scenarios, assessment tools and development of multi-institutional collaboratives in This committee at the ASA helps inform guidelines, initiatives, and collaborations within pediatric anesthesia at the ASA. This book helps prepare anesthesiology residents for safe practice of pediatric anesthesia. The program brings together experts from clinical and basic science disciplines related to pediatric medicine, anesthesia, and surgery. Format: 3 - Full day training sessions spaced out through the duration of the fellowship program. The three high-fidelity simulation scenarios were planned based on the identified goals and objectives and common pediatric emergencies seen in the PACU. 1 it is a relatively frequent complication that occurs with varying frequency dependent on multiple factors. The Simulation Program at Boston Children's Hospital is the first pediatric simulation center in United States to be endorsed by the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA). The scenario is used for practice, evaluation, and self-identification of weaknesses in the learner's knowledge base in regard to perioperative management of the pediatric patient.

The Multidisciplinary Pediatric Airway Course is designed to teach the basics of airway management as well as advanced skills to manage different airway scenarios for pediatric patients to all disciplines of medicine involved in the care of children. Dr. Over the years, the use of simulation has gone from low fidelity to high fidelity models that mimic human responses in a startlingly realistic manner, extremely life-like mannequin that breathes, generates E.K.G, and has pulses, heart sounds, and an airway that can be programmed . At the end of each simulation session, a pediatric anesthesia faculty member with debriefing expertise facilitated the debrief along with the PACU nurse educator. I have taught simulation scenarios for both anesthesia residents and pediatric anesthesia fellows for pediatric emergency scenarios. Despite remarkable progress, pediatric anesthesia-related mortality remains 2 to 30 times higher than in adults. Simulation-based assessment of pediatric anesthesia skills. . Sponsored Content: Kaiser Permanente Healthcare Simulation Trigger Films In this project, we used simulation technology to assess pediatric anesthesia skills in trainees in anesthesiology who are learning to administer anesthesia to children.
