ABA Go vs Emergency Manual

The ABA Go app brings MOCA Minute® and the full functionality of the ABA physician’s portal together in one, easy-to-use place. ABA Go is part of the seamless technology that powers anesthesiologists’ journey from residency to retirement, and provides all users with a real-time snapshot of their board certification or continuing certification status. In the app, users can: • Register for exams and see their results • Monitor their continuing certification progress and requirements via the dashboard • Answer MOCA Minute questions • Manage their medical licenses and access state-specific requirements • Access lifelong learning opportunities via the new CME Explorer and personalized Knowledge Assessment Report • Download a certificate status letter

Despite best intentions, well-trained clinicians often miss known key steps during crises. This free perioperative Emergency Manual by the Stanford Anesthesia Cognitive Aid Program (SACAP) includes a set of cognitive aids and checklists for 25 critical perioperative events including cardiac arrest, bronchospasm, LAST, malignant hyperthermia, unanticipated difficult airway, and the rest of the key perioperative chief complaints. It includes crisis resource management tips, and serves as a drug dosing and concentration reference for relevant medications. The app can be used for self-study, and most importantly, as a cognitive aid during perioperative crises. The Emergency Manual has been used by thousands of anesthesiologists around the world, and is now available on the iPhone!
