2016 Art of Anaesthesia

On behalf of the ACT Regional Committees of ANZCA and the ASA, we invite you to the 2016 Combined Art of Anaesthesia meeting to be held in Canberra over the weekend of October 15-16, 2016.

During the Saturday program we are providing presentations on the modern management of what might be considered old chestnuts; we are reflecting on the current “hoops” of hospital accreditation and CPD through the prisms of two recently successful PhD candidates; we are trying to get our heads around care of the brain in various states of distress; and we are looking to the future of anaesthesia.

On Sunday morning, there will be two emergency response workshops ‘Can’t Intubate Can’t Oxygenate’, and ‘Anaphylaxis Management’. In the afternoon, there will be a ‘Fibre-optic Bronchoscopy workshop’ with Associate Professor Scott Parkes. The workshops will help those who wish to complete mandatory CPD emergency response activities and those who wish to refresh their knowledge of the complex art of fibre optic intubation.

We welcome everyone to the meeting and encourage all to attend the last week of the Floriade flower festival. Floriade is Australia’s largest celebration of spring and showcases one million flowers in bloom throughout Commonwealth Park. Bring the family, stay for the weekend and enjoy a unique experience in the nation’s capital.
