Anaesthesia Refresher

Understanding the fundamentals of anaesthesia monitoring will not only boost your confidence but will also lay the groundwork for future skills and concepts to be built on.

Monitoring your patients' physiological parameters is similar to assembling puzzle pieces; it is critical to understand how they all fit together to form a larger picture so that any abnormalities can be identified and troubleshooted. Because many diseases, anaesthetic drugs, and surgical procedures affect our patients differently, no two anaesthetics will be the same.

This day will provide you with a thorough understanding of how to monitor your patient throughout their entire anaesthesia experience, whether you are newly qualified, returning to work, or simply looking to improve your knowledge.

• The P wave in ECGs is not for Panic: Understanding ECGs
