TAASK: TEAMTRAINING IN ACUTE ANESTHETIC SITUATIONS AND CRISES
TAASK makes two different courses possible:
Before all TAASK courses, participants prepare by reading the book "TAASK: Prevent and managing crises in anesthesiology", and taking an online pretest.
TAASK Masterclass: 3 days
TAASK Express: 1 day; 2-4 course days are held during one week
Each day, one or two groups of course participants are welcomed, who simulate in either one or two simulation rooms, either in-situ or at a simulation center. After an hour's introduction, 4 full-scale simulations are run according to the same model as in the TAASK Masterclass. TAASK Express also ends with an interactive postal test.
Who attends TAASK courses?
At TAASK Masterclass there are 12 places for anesthesiologists and 6 for nurse anesthetists or ODAs. At TAASK Express there are up to 9 or 18 course places per day: at least a third of the places are filled by anesthesiologists (both ST and specialists), a third by nurse anesthetists or ODAs, and the remaining places are taken by anesthesiologists, nurse anesthetists or ODAs, auxiliary nurses, and on certain courses scrub nurses.

Why attend a TAASK course?
Why should my department host a TAASK course?
Our courses consistently receive very positive reviews from both faculty and participants, both for their educational value and for their 'enjoyability'.
CLINICIANS
Team-training in a simulated environment enables you and your team to reflect on and efficiently improve your technical and non-technical performance, which is good for you and your patients.
FACULTY
TAASK Courses standardized format and simulation protocols that are tried, tested and continually improved allow you to run high-quality courses without having to start from scratch.

ST registrar, Anesthesia and Intensive Care, Falu Hospital
"Fantastic course! Having practiced the most critical situations in a realistic but safe environment gave me a lasting sense of security. All anaesthesiologists should attend this course at least once!"
Sarah Galien
ST registrar, Anesthesia and Intensive Care,
Academic Hospital, Uppsala
"TAASK Masterclass is without hesitation the most beneficial course that I have so far attended during my ST program. A perfect mix of simulation with challenging cases and reflection including communication and practice. Strongly recommended!"
Arash Izadkhasti
Specialist in Anesthesia and Intensive Care, Södersjukhuset Stockholm
"The course is a must for everyone in anaesthesia and intensive care, and definitely worth repeating as a specialist. You learn so much about your own reactions under pressure!"
