This 3.5-hour program includes an airway station, demonstration of various advanced airway devices with hands-on experience, and two simulation stations where the participants will execute management of simulated emergencies in real time. A debriefing to discuss the efficacy of the interventions will follow each scenario. OMSs are strongly encouraged to register with their allied staff in order to more closely replicate the office environment and team roles. To make the best use of the available time, participants will be provided with a list of mock drugs and equipment available.
- Designate roles and responsibilities for each member of the anesthesia team during an emergency;
- Develop office emergency scenarios with the anesthesia team and implement on a periodic basis; and
- Demonstrate effective management of a compromised airway using various airway devices.
