Description of CME Course
Unlike a conventional operating room, MRI and CT environments frequently require the anesthesiologist to assume broader responsibility for immediate patient care decisions. Medical emergencies in this environment may be difficult to manage so the anesthesiologist should have a plan in place to deal with instrumentation of the airway and common airway problems.
Prepare an action plan, implement your plan (minimum of 14 days) and reflect and report outcomes.
