SOCCA Education Session: What constitutes a fair day’s work? The future of critical care employment
Enduring CME Link: https://cme.openanesthesia360.org/a/AEYQNX
This session will focus on how work is defined and performance is measured for critical care anesthesiologists in an era of value based payment models and in a setting of increasing focus on sustainability, physician job-satisfaction and well-being.

  • Are RVUs Meaningful for Critical Care Anesthesiologists?
    Michael Nurok, MBChB, PhD, FCCM, Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, Los Angeles, CA
  • Should the Nature of Work Be Considered in Effort (For e.g. Should Work in an ECMO Unit Count More Than Work in A Community ICU)?
    Mark Nunnally, MD, FCCM, New York University Langone Medical Center, New York City, NY
  • What is the Future of Reimbursement for Surgical Critical Care Services?

SOCCA Education Session II: Challenges to improving post-ICU survivorship
Enduring CME Link: https://cme.openanesthesia360.org/a/ZJSVIT

Our aim as a specialty is to improve not only survival but also quality of life after critical illness. Post-ICU syndrome, including cognitive and functional deficits, is prevalent, debilitating, and costly. This session is composed of anesthesia intensivists actively investigating critical illness survivorship outcomes and will be moderated by two senior physician scientists with presentations from three successful rising investigators.

Presentations will include discussion of the current evidence surrounding shock treatment, sedation and delirium, and muscle health and will incorporate original data and shared experiences of their pathways into critical illness outcomes research. The panel is aimed at advancing both clinical knowledge and career development, with a target audience from trainees through senior clinicians.

  • Post-ICU Cognitive Dysfunction: An Ounce of Prevention Is Worth a Pound of Cure

SOCCA Education Session III: Steroids in ARDS – Where we are, where we were and where we will be
Enduring CME Link: https://cme.openanesthesia360.org/a/MEJEQM

This will be an ultra-lively session focused on controversial topics where the speaker will be given a side of the argument and debate one of the other speakers. The moderator will proclaim a winner of each debate and answer the question. Objectives:

  1. To understand the present day role of steroids in ARDS.
  2. To understand the different strategies in ventilation in patients with ARDS and ECMO (lung- protective versus ultra lung-protective) and debate the existence of PSILI.
  3. Gain and understand of the uses and pitfalls of procalcitonin.
