Course #088 Autonomic Nervous System Physiology

$20.00

This course reviews the autonomic nervous system with a practical focus on anesthesia care. Dr. Brett Clay, CRNA, breaks down the key differences between the sympathetic and parasympathetic systems and explains how neurotransmitters, receptors, and the adrenal medulla influence physiologic responses during anesthesia. Common autonomic reflexes and the role of higher brain centers are discussed to help connect foundational physiology to real-world clinical scenarios. Participants will leave with a clearer understanding of how the autonomic nervous system affects target organs and anesthetic management in everyday practice.
