Fellowship Training:

Fellowship in Pediatric Anesthesiology

The University of Michigan Department of Anesthesiology offers a fellowship-training program (CA-IV year) in Pediatric Anesthesiology. This fellowship has been accredited by the ACGME. Fellows in pediatric anesthesiology at Mott Children's Hospital gain experience in the management of difficult pediatric cases including complex congenital hear disease by providing anesthesia services for, on average over 50 - 75 pediatric open heart surgical cases. In addition, fellows can expect to be involved in the care of approximately 30 neonates undergoing surgical procedures including TEF, CDH and omphalocele repairs during the CA-IV year.

A didactic lecture series given by the pediatric anesthesia faculty to the fellows, residents and medical students provides a solid background education in the preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative management of infants and children including physiology, regional anesthesia and fluid management. Involvement in ongoing research projects and encouragement in designing and developing new research projects helps to foster interest in research in pediatric anesthesiology during the CA-IV year. Fellows are encouraged to participate in the yearly Midwest Anesthesia Research Conference (MARC). Participation on the Pediatric Acute and Chronic Pain Service helps to complete the experience during the fellowship year.
