Surgery doesn't stop for anything - not even COVID-19. University of Ottawa anesthesiologists faced an unprecedented challenge in March 2020: develop new operating room protocols, train hundreds of operating room staff to immediately care for patients in new and unfamiliar ways, and find a way to keep everyone safe...in less than one week. Join our webinar to see what we did, and how we did it!
