who are beginning their training. The first section, “Basic Principles of Crisis Management in Anesthesiology,” is particularly distinct because it focuses on the mind of the anesthesia provider and analyzes his or her expertise in terms of its component parts. The 2 chapters in this section are very psychology-oriented and discuss the theories of dynamic decision-making and the principles of anesthesia crisis resource management. The material is similar to the programs that are part of airline pilot training. The second section, “The Catalog of Critical

sufficient knowledge and skills in treating dental anxiety upon graduating 39 ; this could involve interprofessional collaboration with psychology staff and students. 40 Training for dental professionals has been shown to improve their confidence in managing dentally anxious patients. 41 , 42 Since dental anxiety rests at the interface of dentistry and psychology, greater interprofessional collaboration is essential. 2 Limitations and Strengths The most important weaknesses of the study were our inability to obtain an up-to-date sampling frame from either the DCNZ

. We teach dentists how to manage their patients' concerns, both physical and mental. What a marvelous educational opportunity the teaching of pain and anxiety provides. It offers the chance to integrate the basic sciences into a more meaningful curriculum: Anatomy, Cardiorespiratory and Neurophysiology, Pharmacology and Psychology all find their roles and reason when applied to patient management. Safety and satisfactory care are enhanced. Over the millennia pain relief was sorely lacking until the middle of the 19th century when two dentists developed

The relevance of psychology and behavioral sciences is ever increasing both in dental education and in clinical practice. A high percentage of patients are so fearful of dental care as to delay or avoid attendance. Other than avoidance behavior, dental anxiety has a wide-ranging and dynamic impact on a person's life. Therefore, careful assessment of anxiety and treatment is an essential step for appropriate patient management and overall quality of care. The evaluation of dental anxiety can be performed with a wide range of

Gum Chewing May Attenuate Salivary Alpha-amylase Of Psychological Stress Responses Nobuyoshi Nakajo, Shigemasa Tomioka, Satoru Eguchi, Kazumi Takaishi, Gota Cho, and Kenji Sato * , Department of Dental Anesthesiology, Graduate School of Dentistry, The University of Tokushima (Chief: Prof. Nobuyoshi Nakajo) and * Clinical Psychology Studies, Graduate School of Human and Natural Environment Sciences, The University of Tokushima (Chief: Prof. Yoko Mori) The aim of this study was to examine whether gum chewing could reduce stress

The relevance of psychology and behavioral sciences is ever increasing both in dental education and in clinical practice. 1 A large number of patients are so fearful of dental care as to delay or avoid attendance; dental anxiety involves a wide‐ranging and dynamic impact on patients' lives, in addition to avoidance behavior. 2 – 9 The incidence of dental anxiety and phobia ranges from 10 to 30% of the population and depends on several factors, such as nationality, sociocultural background, previous experience, and type of intervention. 3 , 10 – 14 Oral

that many errors go unnoticed by the anesthesiologist who makes them and that the incident reporting tends to underestimate the problem. In 2017, Grigg et al 16 prospectively assessed the impact of an anesthesia medication template (AMT) on medication errors by anesthesia providers during simulation and in the OR. Using individuals with expertise in visual, interaction and industrial design, cognitive psychology, and experience designing aircraft cockpits in collaboration with anesthesiologists, a 3-dimensional template was created as a formal way of

drugs can also lead to theft by patients or staff, which may carry legal ramifications from the Drug Enforcement Agency in the case of controlled substances. CONTRIBUTING FACTORS IN MEDICATION ERRORS AND ADVERSE DRUG EVENTS Experts in the fields of human factor engineering, psychology, and interactive system design have identified several underlying factors related to these perioperative issues. Many of these have undergone further investigation by researchers delving into precipitating factors for medication errors and adverse drug
