NEW
EDUCATIONAL GUIDELINES AVAILABLE - TOP

The
SAMBA Committee on Education has revised SAMBA's Educational
Guidelines for Subspecialty Anesthesia Residency and Fellowship Training
in Ambulatory Anesthesia. These are a great source of reference
material not only for anesthesiologists in training, but also for anyone
involved in delivering anesthesia in the ambulatory setting. The guidelines
contain a large number of references regarding the different types of
ambulatory surgical facilities, as well the preoperative evaluation,
preparation and medication, intraoperative management, and postoperative
care of the ambulatory surgical patient. There is also a comprehensive
manual of guidelines for the management of Malignant
Hyperthermia in the ambulatory setting. Visit our Web
site to view these guidelines.
