Sedation 401: BIS guided TCI sedation with Propofol and Remifentanyl

Learn how to safely deliver Propofol and Remifentanil to provide minimal to moderate sedation guided by Bispectral (BIS) monitoring Target Controlled Infusion (TCI) is a system that delivers drugs intravenously using computer controlled pumps. For: Experienced IV sedationists with significant experience in a multi-drug technique with a desire to move to this significantly advanced technique for procedural sedation. Applicants will be required to submit their sedation experience, log books, case reports and be pre-screened for eligibility to attend this course.
