Respiratory physiology, acid-base physiology, gastrointestinal physiology, metabolism, endocrinology, reproductive physiology, physiology of pregnancy/labor.

ANES 5686 - Chemistry and Physics for Nurse Anesthetists

(3 cr; Prereq-General chemistry or instr consent; A-F or Audit; offered Every Summer)

Chemical equilibrium, organic chemistry, physics of fluids/gases, anesthetic applications.

ANES 7015 - Directed Study, Anesthesia Topics/Project Course Development (Topics course)

(1 cr [max 15]; H-N or Audit; offered Every Fall & Spring; may be repeated for 15 credits)

ANES 7181 - Introduction to Anesthesiology

(2 cr; P-N only; offered Every Fall, Spring & Summer)

The student will receive supervised training in the operating suite at Fairview-University Medical Center (University Campus), assisting in the management of all types of surgical patients under the direction of the faculty and residents of the Department of Anesthesiology. The rotation is divided into one-week segments; each student may select sub-specialty areas on the basis of interest. The student will spend the majority of his/her time in the operating room because only under such controlled conditions can there be leisurely teaching of essential life-support skills. There is no night or weekend call.

ANES 7182 - Anesthesiology Research

(2 cr [max 8]; P-N only; offered Every Fall, Spring & Summer; may be repeated for 8 credits)

On- or off-campus learning experiences individually arranged between the student and a faculty member for credit in areas not covered by regular courses. May include clinical/basic science research, library research or special projects.

ANES 7185 - Anesthesiology Advanced Elective

(4 cr; H-N only; offered Every Fall, Spring & Summer)

Equivalent courses: ANES 7195 (inactive)

This 4-week advanced rotation is focused on the medical student who is interested in pursuing a career in anesthesiology and/or desires additional anesthesia experience in managing medically complex patients undergoing medium to high-risk surgery. Students will have the opportunity to care for the aging veteran population. There will be an emphasis on managing patients with multiple co-morbid conditions undergoing cardiac and vascular surgery. Additionally, medical students will learn more advanced concepts during cases that include ENT, thoracic, and abdominal surgery. The medical student will develop skills including placing peripheral intravenous catheters, endotracheal intubation, arterial lines, and central lines. The medical student will develop a greater understanding of perioperative cardiovascular physiology/hemodynamics and pulmonary physiology, ventilator management and interpretation of data from multiple simultaneous monitors. They will function at the level of a sub-intern and will be given advanced responsibilities consistent with their level of knowledge and skill.

ANES 7186 - Clinical Practice in Anesthesia

(15 cr; H-N or Audit; offered Every Fall & Spring)

ANES 7187 - Peroperative Clinic Rotation

(4 cr; H-N only; offered Every Fall, Spring & Summer)

This is a 4-week advanced elective that takes place in the Preoperative Anesthesia Clinic with the department of Anesthesiology faculty. The goal of this elective is for medical students to gain experience evaluating medically complex patients and optimizing them prior to their procedures. This elective is geared towards medical students planning to go into the primary care fields, surgery, or anesthesiology. Primary care physicians routinely perform the preoperative history and physical examinations for patients? procedures. They will gain a greater understanding of the anesthetic and procedural considerations that affect their patients. Medical students will work closely with the Preoperative Anesthesia Clinic faculty and anesthesiology residents. Initially, the medical student will shadow residents/faculty, then they will progress to see patients independently and present to staff pertinent history and physical, assessment, and plan of action. They will also assist in the coordination of the patient?s care which involves contacting primary care providers, surgical teams, and consultants. The medical student will have the opportunity to follow select medically complex patients from a patient-centered, longitudinal perspective including coordination of care; application of evidence based, best practice protocols and pathways; observation of the anesthetic care of the patient intraoperatively; observation of the recovery and rehabilitation of the patient post operatively; and finally return of the patient to his or her primary care physician. This is a unique, all encompassing view of a complex health care event not typically afforded trainees in traditional rotations. Over the course of 4 weeks, the medical student will have ten one-on-one didactic sessions in journal club format with faculty to cover topics related to the pre-operative assessment including evaluation of cardiovascular risk and testing, pulmonary testing, diabetes, and frailty.

ANES 7188 - Pain Medicine Elective

(2 cr; P-N only; offered Every Fall, Spring & Summer)

Pain is a common ailment that physicians across a range of specialties manage. Therefore, accurately diagnosing and effectively managing pain is an important skillset to acquire. Medical students will gain a greater depth of understanding of the complex mechanisms that contribute to pain and appreciate the multidisciplinary approach to pain medicine. Medical students will spend their two weeks in both the outpatient and inpatient settings. In the chronic pain clinic they will evaluate patients with faculty, fellows, and residents, and observe and participate in interventional pain procedures. In the inpatient setting, they will observe and participate in regional anesthesia procedures prior to surgical procedures, evaluate hospitalized patients with chronic pain or complex pain management concerns and round on patients on the inpatient pain management service. Students can fulfill the anesthesiology prerequisite either by completing ANES 7181 or by doing at least 2 weeks of anesthesiology in SURG 7552.

ANES 7189 - Acting Internship: Cardiovascular Intensive Care Unit

(4 cr; H-N only; offered Every Fall, Spring & Summer)

In the U.S., cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of mortality and many patients require surgical treatment for cardiovascular disease. Understanding the principles of diagnosis and management of complications in cardiac surgical patients is essential for students interested in pursuing a career in critical care regardless of avenue (surgery, emergency medicine, internal medicine, and anesthesiology). The goal of the Cardiovascular ICU (CVICU) clerkship is to give students the opportunity to develop basic skills in evaluation and treatment of patients requiring cardiac surgery including management of patients requiring mechanical circulatory support such as ventricular assist devices (VAD's) and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). Students can fulfill the anesthesiology prerequisite either by completing ANES 7181 or by doing at least 2 weeks of anesthesiology in SURG 7552.

ANES 7286 - Directed Study Anesthesia Project: Clinical

(1 cr [max 15]; H-N or Audit; offered Every Spring; may be repeated for 15 credits)

ANES 7601 - Introduction to Medical Device Innovation

(4 cr; H-N only; offered Periodic Spring)

Introduction to medical device innovation will provide a 4-week experience for fourth-year medical students to immerse themselves in the world of medical device innovation. Students will have opportunities to visit industry and see firsthand how medical devices are developed. Students will come to the course with their own ideas and gain experience with prototyping in our own Bakken medical devices center, and will work with the Carlson School of Management to participate in the evaluation lab and perform a marketability assessment of their idea.

ANES 8269 - Research in Anesthesia

(1 cr; Student Option; offered Every Fall & Spring)
