The Australian Society of Anaesthetists (ASA) COVID-19 Working Group meets regularly to prepare guidelines to assist anaesthetists in the management of known or suspected COVID-19 patients in operating theatres and in minimising the spread of the virus. These guidelines and a range of resources are available on the links below.
We have been vocal in advocating for appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) for healthcare workers on the frontline of the pandemic in Australia. Our actions on behalf of more than 3,700 members have initiated progress in fit-testing and other health and safety actions.
ASA President Dr Suzi Nou has been at the forefront of this campaign during 2020 and has been speaking directly to members through regular emails and podcasts.
Australian Anaesthesia podcasts are available wherever you find your podcast. Members who wish to listen to the full content can find them here.
