Description
Summary:Cardiac anesthesia is a complex field 'requiring extensive training and experience. Multimedia can be used effectively to teach new, complex, and rapidly developing anesthetic and surgical techniques. Minimally invasive Port-Access cardiac surgery is an area in which the computer can be used for educational purposes. As cardiac anesthesiologists become more adept at developing computerized instructional methods, and as new techniques in medicine emerge, greater use can be made of the computer as a valuable teaching tool.
