Point of Care Ultrasound encompasses a series of ultrasound examinations including transthoracic echocardiography and intravascular volume assessment, as well as lung, abdominal, and peripheral vascular ultrasound. Collectively, POCUS is an essential tool for the anesthesiologist which allows for the acquisition of ultrasound images non-invasively (as compared to transesophageal echocardiography) in multiple settings, including perioperative emergencies, to evaluate and diagnose multiple patholo...

Participants will engage in education to critically appraise and critique recent publications in obstetric anesthesia and improving patient outcomes. A variety of topics from researchers in several disciplines from across the VU and VUMC institutions will be covered.

This conference will review data on the most complex pediatric genetic cases at MCJCHV and will be reviewed by cardiology, CT surgery, Genetics, ethics, critical care providers, ENT, Pulmonology, General Surgery, anesthesia, and palliative care teams. The content will focus on establishing a standardized approach in the management of children with genetic diagnoses without clear standards of practice. Plan for comparing/contrasting any relevant diagnostic data.

Anesthesiology MMI Conference is offered monthly. Participants will engage in education on current issues individual, practice, and system factors contributing to medical errors, complications, sub-optimal outcomes and discuss implications for clinical practice and the impact on patient outcome. A variety of topics from researchers in several disciplines from across the VU and VUMC institutions will be covered.

Monthly MMI meeting that goes over recent pediatric transplant cases, with lessons learned, practice changes, and corrective action planning.
