OBEAM Module Session Information

The AAOMS National Simulation Program allows participants to practice and master critical techniques for administering and monitoring office-based anesthesia. Unlike previous anesthesia emergency simulation courses, this program is standardized to ensure every participant experiences the same simulated events. Its state-of-the-art technology enables AAOMS to automatically evaluate the performance of every participant and pinpoint those areas that may benefit from additional training. In short, this program offers oral and maxillofacial surgeons an effective method of assessing their readiness to meet an office anesthesia emergency situation.

At the conclusion of this activity, participants should be able to:

  • Review concepts and skills to obtain an understanding of sedation monitoring, supplemental oxygen techniques, techniques for opening an airway, bag mask ventilation using one- and two-person technique, proper laryngeal mask airway insertion technique and proper Airtraq insertion technique.
  • Demonstrate mastery of bag mask ventilation using one- and two-person techniques for both normal and difficult simulated ventilation situations, laryngeal mask airway insertion using proper technique and Airtraq insertion using proper technique.
