Syllabus

The course aims to provide students with a solid foundation of theoretical and practical knowledge related to anesthesiological procedures in the surgical setting. By the end of the course, students will have acquired knowledge and skills regarding: the theoretical foundations and main types of anesthesia (e.g., general, regional); preoperative assessment and evaluation of anesthetic risk; types of anesthetic drugs, specific modes of administration (e.g., inhaled gases), indications, desired effects, side effects, and contraindications; muscle relaxants, including indications, effects, adverse events, and contraindications; the different phases of anesthesia (e.g., induction, maintenance, emergence), with a focus on the prevention and management of complications; airway management, intraoperative life support, and monitoring techniques.

classroom teaching

Slides will be available at the end of the class

The assessment of acquired competencies will be carried out through an individual written examination aimed at verifying the achievement of the expected learning outcomes, in accordance with the Dublin Descriptors. The test will consist of multiple-choice questions: each correct answer will be awarded 1 point, while no points will be given for incorrect or unanswered questions. The final grade, expressed out of thirty, will be determined by the total number of points obtained. The exam may be administered via the Moodle platform or in paper format and will take place in one of the University’s computer classrooms or another suitable venue, depending on the modality chosen by the instructor, which will be communicated before the end of the course.

This course explores topics closely related to one or more goals of the United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development (SDGs)
