2019 Fall Conference

Handouts

Dear Colleagues,

I am looking forward to seeing you each at the upcoming MSA Fall Conference on November 16, 2019. As always, this conference is a great venue to network with colleagues around the state and explore some advances in our field of anesthesiology.

At this year’s Fall Conference, we are excited to welcome several local experts in addition to Dr. Francis Salinas, a regional anesthesia guru from the Virginia Mason Medical Center. The conference’s agenda includes expert speakers on the topics of intraoperative mechanical ventilation, perioperative concussions, regional anesthesia and the establishment of perioperative surgical homes for orthopedic surgery. The second half of this fall’s agenda is a hands-on ultrasound and regional anesthesia workshop including suprascapular, subsartorial and IPACK blocks plus transthoracic echocardiography and basic lung ultrasound.

Finally, we’re excited to announce the first ever Annual Conference, held April 17-19, 2020, at the Radisson Blu Mall of America!The MSA Education Committee is listening to member and attendee feedback and has decided to move from a spring and fall conference to one annual conference. We value our attendee’s time and hope that in providing one longer conference with more than double the continuing medical education credit will encourage members to take advantage of these didactic educational opportunities. Between this move to an annual conference and the CME opportunities provided by the Wisconsin Society of Anesthesiologists Annual Meeting each September, we hope that MSA members will take advantage of these member benefits throughout the year.

I hope to see you at the MSA Fall Conference on November 16. This is a great opportunity for us to learn from many experts in our field, advance our quality of care, and explore new regional techniques.

Sincerely,

J. Kyle Bohman, MD
MSA Education Chair
