A 65-year-old man is undergoing an awake carotid endarterectomy. You plan to perform a cervical plexus block with mild sedation, and the surgeon agrees to supplementation with local anesthetic if needed. According to a recent study, which of the following perioperative outcomes is MOST likely to be increased if you were to perform a superficial cervical plexus block instead of a deep cervical plexus block?
(A) Conversion to general anesthesia
(B) Desaturation in the postanesthesia care unit
(C) Preserved movement of the ipsilateral diaphragm
Summaries of Emerging Evidence (SEE) is a self-study continuing education program that highlights important findings from more than 30 scientific medical journals, keeping readers informed about emerging knowledge in the scientific literature and how it can impact and improve the current practice of anesthesiology. The broad range of topics include anesthesia techniques, cardiac anesthesia, critical care, pain medicine, pediatric anesthesia, perioperative medicine, pharmacology, and many more. Here's how SEE transforms the way you learn:
“An easy and cost-effective way to evaluate one's knowledge base, be exposed to some of the latest trends and recommendations in anesthesia care, and earn CME credits.”
“I never cease to be amazed at the diversity of questions and reminders of how much reading we need to do to maintain a scientific basis for the care of our patients as well as the understanding of the literature.”
“I do this every year to stay current with information I may not have seen over the year, especially outside of my realm of practice. I think it would benefit all anesthesiologists.”
“I thought the SEE program was a CME source with little relevance to my private practice. I imagined questions asking about the study of rat muscle after halothane exposure. I could not have been more incorrect! The questions and discussions are incredibly useful and directly applicable to my daily practice of anesthesia. I believe it is THE source for the latest relevant information in private practice anesthesia for patient care. SEE is both highly approachable and ultimately useful, I could not recommend it more.”
