This course provides a detailed overview of the different monitors used in patient care in the perioperative period and focuses on creating a sense of responsibility regarding the absolute need for the presence of the anesthesia team member near the patient throughout procedures in all types of anesthesia. The course provides the student with the essential knowledge about how patient and equipment monitoring is used to titrate administration of anesthetic medication, to detect physiologic perturbations and to allow intervention before the patient suffers harm, as well as to detect and correct equipment malfunction. The course also illustrates the role of the anesthesia technologist in monitoring the patient and maintaining equipment function.
