Local Anesthesia
This course is intended to expand your didactic background in pain control and give you additional clinical experience in injection administration to clinical competency.
Basic local anesthetic science and technique information will be presented in this course, but true proficiency depends on your additional outside research and study review, discussion of your injection successes and failures, and hours of practice.
Course materials and assignments will be provided via an online classroom.
The lecture/lab clinical portion is given in 30 hours. (Blackboard online classroom preparation will provide 10 hours of instruction.)
