DACS 800-850: Simulation I-V

This course spans four semesters, with one credit hour per course awarded and with separate grades given for each consecutive course. Each course has learning activities aligned to supplement classroom teachings and readings. Simulation is intended for students to practice and demonstrate basic, advanced skills, decision-making and critical thinking as they progress in their studies and clinical practice experiences. Students practice fiberoptic intubations, jet ventilation, advanced airway techniques for difficult airways, CVP placement, one lung ventilation, hypo and hypertension management, epidural and spinal placement, pediatric laryngospasm, ultrasound guided regional anesthesia, and management of vascular complications.

Course Description:

This doctoral-level course integrates three complementary threads to prepare learners for safe, evidence-based, and ethical entry into nurse anesthesia practice: (1) guided study of COA guidelines for counting cases and required clinical experiences with emphasis on accurate case logging and reflective analysis; (2) structured discussion of impactful current clinical cases encountered by students; and (3) team-based development and presentation of comprehensive anesthesia management plans for assigned surgical topics. The course emphasizes critical thinking, communication, professionalism, and interprofessional collaboration, while reinforcing accurate documentation, patient safety, and perianesthesia management.
