MASX-300 : Anesthesiology

The student will be assigned to daily care (pre-op/peri-op/post-op) of patients who require care by anesthesiologists. The students will work under the supervision of an anesthesiologist in the main operating room, labor & delivery suite, pain clinic, endoscopy suites, cystoscopy, and other laboratories. Students will also actively participate in lectures and other teaching/learning sessions. Attendance and punctuality at these sessions are mandatory. Students will be assigned topics for presentation and discussion in teaching sessions. Training in managing airways will be accomplished by use of mannequins. Each student is required to write up a case report of a patient they encountered during the rotation or conduct a literature review of an assigned topic that will be written in the form of a paper suitable for publication. All students are required to maintain a log of all patients whose care they were involved.
