NUNA 690 - Nurse Anesthesia Principles I (3)

Investigates principles of physics including gas laws, fluid dynamics, thermal principles, and mechanisms of vaporization; principles of monitoring including all monitoring modalities used in practice of anesthesia, with emphasis on application involved with specialty procedures and pathological states. Anesthesia machine components focus on function, operation, and troubleshooting of an anesthesia machine. Simulation allows the integration and application of knowledge of theory into evidence-based practice. Offered: Spring.
