The Alabama State Society of Anesthesiologists welcomes you to our web site.
We hope to make this site informative to our patients and our members. The Alabama
State Society of Anesthesiologists represents over 400 anesthesiologists in the
State of Alabama. Our primary interest is in the safety of our patients who undergo
anesthesia, pain management, and critical care under our direction daily. Anesthesiologists
are the medical doctors who prescribe anesthesia medication and decide an anesthetic
plan for your safe and comfortable anesthetic experience. As the American Society
of Anesthesiologist's celebrates its 100th year and beyond, we would ask that
you look around our website and hopefully you will find useful information. If
you have any comments or suggestions, please contact us.
Thank you for visiting our site. ASSA
A link to the Anesthesia Incident Reporting System (AIRS) -
The Anesthesia Quality Institute (AQI) has
activated the first nationwide system for collecting individual adverse events
from anesthesia, pain management and perioperative care. It is called
AIRS: the Anesthesia Incident Reporting System. AIRS is an online
reporting tool easily accessed on the AQI website at www.aqiairs.org. The AQI uses data from AIRS to abstract
interesting cases which are published as de-identified case reports in the
ASA Newsletter. AQI will also periodically examine the entirety
of AIRS for emerging trends in anesthesia patent safety. This is
a valuable easy-to-use tool your members may want to utilize to compliment
their quality initiatives.
