What I like about Blockchain ….
Blockchain • Distributed ledger - avoiding central
management & storage
• Interoperability - connectivity
• Self-sovereignty - user control
• Transparency & provenance -
capacity of parties to transact
• Immutability - permanent, append only
• Trust - confidence in the infrastructure,
privacy & governance

Blockchain • Recording of every transaction in a
time period
• Recognition of value including non-
financial (e.g. education, information)
• Grouped together in a block
• Blocks ‘chained’ together in
chronological order
• Reminiscent of the base pairs in a
DNA double helix

Title:
Provide safe, efficient and effective anaesthesia and
sedation for ASA I-II patient having low risk surgery with
Level 4 supervision
Description:
This activity involves providing general anaesthesia,
regional anaesthesia and sedation to low risk patients
(ASA I-II) - including emergency patients - for minor or
intermediate complexity surgery. This is a core
anaesthetic skill. It involves integration of knowledge
(pharmacology, physiology, anatomy), technical skills
(airway management, intravascular access), and non-
technical skills (patient and team communication,
collaboration, professionalism).
