Description

This 45-60 mins session will introduce you to the triad of anaesthesia, the common agents used in general anaesthesia, the steps to put someone to sleep (induction sequences), and maintaining the state of unconsciousness throughout the procedure.

There would be MCQs throughout the talk where attendees can join with Vevox via a QR code, all anonymous.

Presented by Dr Jesymin Choong, ACCS CT2 Trainee in the East of England
