conducts workshops on safe sedation and analgesic methods. In order to confirm the knowledge of participants both before and after seminar participation, pre-and post-tests based on the "Practice Guidelines for Sedation and Analgesia by Non-Anesthesiologists" developed by the American Society of Anesthesiologists were taken by 47 participants who gave consent among 55 who took part in the seminar. The correct response rate was significantly higher on the post-test than the pre-test, but the correct response rate was <50% on both tests for questions on the importance of capnography. The present seminar may contribute to the practice of safe sedation around the country, but to disseminate even safer sedation, the contents of workshops should be reviewed and workshops should be continuously assessed and revised based on the results in the future.
Massive hemorrhaging and acute myocardial infarction can cause crises in the operating room, so a simulation-based educational course for dealing with perioperative crise (ALS-OP) based on occasional case research in anesthesia and/or anesthesia educational guidelines may help improve medical safety in the operating room. To maximize the performance of advanced life support training in the operating room, the course content should be constructed using operating room situations, scenarios based on special operating room situations, environmental factors, and smooth communication with medical staff. Training that employs problem-based learning and discussion can be adjusted to the level of each participant, and non-technical skills such as team communication can also be cultivated.Problem-based learning and discussion may help improve medical safety in the operating room.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
