Unlock the secrets of preventing pediatric perioperative medication errors with insights from our esteemed guests, Eva Lu-Boettcher and Rahul Koka. Pediatric patients face unique challenges due to variations in body weight and dosing calculations, making them particularly vulnerable to medication errors. Join us as we explore the discrepancies between self-reported and observed error rates and gain a deeper understanding of the workflow vulnerabilities anesthesia professionals encounter. We also share findings from the Wake Up Safe Collaborative, revealing the administration phase as the most error-prone and illustrating how preventative and mitigative barriers can effectively manage risks through a bowtie analysis.
Our commitment to enhancing patient safety doesn't end there. Discover the APSF Technology Education Initiatives, designed to equip anesthesia professionals with vital knowledge for safe practice. We highlight the Quantitative Neuromuscular Monitoring course, aligned with the ASA 2023 Practice Guidelines, as well as the importance of staying informed through courses on Low Flow Anesthesia and the upcoming Manual External Defibrillation, Cardioversion, and Pacing course. Our mission is to ensure that no one is harmed by anesthesia care, and this episode provides essential education and insights that every professional should incorporate into their practice.
