Our annual relative analgesia course was held on Monday 10 May 2021. This in-demand course, presented by the ADASA in conjunction with the Australian Society of Dental Anesthesiology (ASDA) sold out early & after being postponed earlier in the year was able proceed safely and within the Covid-19 Infection Control guidelines.

During the morning session our presenter’s Dr Angelo Preketes and Dr Michael Walker provided information on all aspects on the use of nitrous oxide in the dental surgery and its safety & efficacy. The afternoon session gave those attending the opportunity to experience the effects of nitrous oxide for themselves and were instructed on the use of oxygen, connecting circuits, fitting nasal hoods and much more.

Our next RA course will be held on Saturday, 12 February 2022. This full day course is always a sought-after event and usually sells out so keep an eye on our website www.adasa.asn.au for more information.

Thank you to Air Liquide who kindly provided the equipment.
