Media features ASA recommendations for resuming health screenings and procedures

An ASA release providing seven ways for patients to prepare for long-delayed screenings or procedures that require anesthesia or sedation resulted in more than 1,000 online placements, including the LA Times, New York Daily News, Chicago Tribune, Houston Chronicle, San Francisco Gate and Seattle Post-Intelligencer. “With safety measures in place and COVID-19 numbers decreasing, it is vital for everyone to resume their lifesaving and life-changing screenings and procedures,” said ASA President Randall M. Clark, M.D., FASA.
