AQI and Related Presentations at the ASA Annual Meeting

As a strong supporter and early adopter of the AQI, ABC encourages readers who will be attending the ASA Annual Meeting to visit the Anesthesia Quality Institute (AQI) booth October 15th-20th in the ASA Resource Center at the San Diego Convention Center - Sails Pavilion (Upper Level). AQI personnel will staff the booth and be available for questions and information.

A variety of educational opportunities relating to anesthesia data and registries is being offered (see the list below) during the meeting. More information and registration for these programs can be found on the ASA Anesthesiology 2010 Web page at http://www2.asahq.org/web/index.asp.
