Extension Seminar in Surgical and Perioperative Complexities
The Extension Seminar in Surgical and Perioperative Complexities is designed to expand your knowledge and skills in navigating the most challenging aspects of perioperative medication management across the surgical journey.
The seminar will include didactic sessions from multidisciplinary specialists covering VTE prophylaxis, antimicrobials, intraoperative anaphylaxis, pain management, bariatric and gastrointestinal surgery, and the impact of altered GI anatomy on medication administration and nutrition. The skills developed during these sessions will then be applied through integrated case-based learning.
This seminar is designed for pharmacists who have experience in surgery and/or perioperative medicine. Warning: it will be challenging, clinically rich, and leave you inspired to push the boundaries of your perioperative practice!
The self-paced learning package will be available from Friday 27 March 2026. The live virtual component of this seminar will take place on Saturday 9 May 2026.
Please note: presentation recordings from the live virtual seminar will not be available.
