Gradian’s symposium at the WCA “Austere Anaesthesia: Improving Safety in Challenging Environments” was successful and well-attended. We were honored to have our 5 speakers present on a variety of critical issues relating to improving anesthesia delivery and surgical/perioperative care in low-resource settings.
