The aim of this course is to equip delegates with the practical techniques and theoretical understanding needed to confidently and competently provide sedation and anaesthesia for 'field' surgery and diagnosis.

Lectures will include current methods of single bolus short-term or prolonged sedation and anaesthesia and will also cover relevant medico-legal issues.

Practical sessions will include clinical cases for standing surgery or surgery under short-term 'in-field' general anaesthesia. Delegates will also learn about and develop practical skills in local anaesthesia for both diagnosis and standing surgery.
