NSG 7410 Biophysical Science for Nurse Anesthesia
Lecture: 3 Lab: 0 Practica: 0 Total Credits: 3
This course focuses on the application of selected principles of physics, chemistry, and biochemistry that form a portion of the scientific foundation of nurse anesthesia practice, building upon foundational knowledge previously acquired. Emphasis is placed on the application of bioscience concepts to anesthesia practice. This includes, but may not be limited to, gas laws, principles of vaporization, physics in the use of anesthetic machines/ventilators/monitors, anesthetic agent chemical reactions, and selected biochemical processes in human physiology. A preliminary review of radiation safety and the basic principles of ultrasound are introduced
Prerequisite(s): Admission to the DNP program w/Con Nurse Anesthesia
