a. Topic: What does the latest evidence tell us about management of the patient with cardiac drug eluting stents?

b. Objectives:

i. Discuss the risk/benefit of current timing associated with the preoperative discontinuation of dual antiplatelet therapy

ii. Review the findings associated with types of surgical procedures and recommendations, if any, for discontinuing DAPT (Dual Anti-platelet therapy)

iii. Understand the implications of first and second generation cardiac stents

0840-0910 Terri Williams, DNAP, CRNA

a. Topic: The Hypoglossal Nerve Stimulator

b. Objectives:

i. Discuss the indications for a hypoglossal nerve stimulator

ii. Compare the management of OSA with CPAP and the hypoglossal nerve stimulator

iii. Identify postoperative management strategies for patients with an existing hypoglossal nerve stimulator

0910-0940 Calin Calebrese, MS, CRNA

a. Topic: The Business of Anesthesia: The 1099 world

b. Objectives:

i. CRNAs and Students will identify what 1099 is and whether or not it fits their needs. This class will educate participants about the possible benefits of working "extra" and "overtime" in a 1099 role versus a typical "W2" role

ii. This lecture will catalog the steps for successfully entering into 1099 work. It will simplify the process while also demonstrating potential pitfalls. It will describe standard fees and expenses. The participants will be offered credible sources to reference going forward

iii. CRNAs and Students will understand the effect 1099 has to empower the profession, influence the market, and enhance their understanding of self-worth in an ever changing environment

ii. Discuss the differences between CSE, Continuous Epidural, and Intermittent Epidural Bolus Dosing for the treatment of Obstetrical Labor Pain

iii. Understand the advantages and disadvantages of each technique

iv. Identify the most appropriate situation for the use of each technique discussed

1010-1030 Break, Vendor area
