Simulation Training for Maintenance of Certification in Anesthesiology (MOCA) - Los Angeles

Simulation Training for Maintenance of Certification in Anesthesiology (MOCA) is organized by UCLA Simulation Center and will be held on Jan 11, 2019 at UCLA Simulation Center, Los Angeles, California, United States of America. This CME Conference has been approved for a maximum of 8.0 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits.

Conference Objectives:
• Provide management of hemodynamic and respiratory critical events in anesthesia.
• Practice up-to-date techniques in a safe learning environment.
• Reflect on optimal teamwork, leadership and communication skills required in crisis management.

Course Highlights:
• Your performance will not be graded. THIS IS NOT A TEST.
• Experiential learning: You will be in the “hot seat” as the primary anesthesiologist for at least one scenario, and observe or help out in other scenarios.
• Small course size: No more than 5 participants per 1 faculty instructor per course.

Enrolled participants will experience or observe various clinical scenarios carefully selected to represent common and infrequent critical events in anesthesia practice. Each participant will play the role of the primary anesthesiologist for at least one scenario and observe or serve as a secondary responder for the other scenarios. Each scenario is followed by a group debriefing. Participants will refresh their skills in managing critical incidents, team interactions and resource utilization.

Additional details will be posted as soon as they are available.
