2018 Fall Conference

Handouts

Dear Colleagues,

With fall approaching, that means it is nearly time for our annual Minnesota Society of Anesthesiologists (MSA) Fall Conference. This conference provides a great platform for us to hear about many important updates in anesthesia presented by notable faculty from Minnesota. Some hot topics to be presented this fall include an update on anesthesia and the vulnerable brain (e.g., post-concussion), progress in regional anesthesia adjuncts, updates on postpartum hemorrhage, CLABSI prevention in the OR, and an important legislative update.

Another exciting addition to this year’s fall conference will be a series of problem-based learning discussions (PBLDs), each lead by experts in the area. These low-stress, interactive sessions tend to be very efficient means of continuing education for adult learners. There will be a variety of high-yield topics discussed at these sessions and are listed on the conference agenda.

I am proud to be able to offer an impressive line-up of our colleagues’ clinical expertise for you at this year’s MSA Fall Conference. I am personally excited to learn from these speakers and facilitators, and I sincerely hope to see you there!

Cordially,
J. Kyle Bohman, MD

Thank You to the 2018 Fall Conference Exhibitors!
