Unlock the potential to save lives with our exciting discussion on the Anesthesia Patient Safety Foundation's Technology Education Initiative course. Featuring Dr. Michael Kazior, an esteemed anesthesiologist and intensivist, we spotlight the crucial skills of manual external defibrillation, cardioversion, and pacing. Dr. Kazior shares his personal journey and highlights the stark educational gaps in defibrillator usage among anesthesia professionals. This course, born from the collaboration between the APSF and the American Society of Anesthesiologists, promises an interactive learning experience that aims to bolster confidence and competence in using these vital life-saving devices. Additionally, this course is a robust addition to the APSF's suite of courses, including those on low-flow anesthesia and quantitative neuromuscular monitoring, all designed to equip anesthesia professionals with comprehensive knowledge of essential technologies.For show notes & transcript, visit our episode page at apsf.org: https://www.apsf.org/podcast/239-enhancing-defibrillation-skills-the-apsfs-technology-education-initiative/© 2025, The Anesthesia Patient Safety Foundation
