In the Clinical Practice Guideline, "ASPAN's Evidence-Based Clinical Practice Guideline for the Promotion of Perioperative Normothermia" (Volume 24, Issue 5, Page 277, October 2009), beneath the section Intraoperative Recommendations, the time allottment for patients undergoing a procedure with an anticipated anesthesia time of less than 30 minutes was listed incorrectly. The correct amount of time should be more than 30 minutes.
In the Continuing Education posttest, "Unintentional Hypothermia: Implications for Perianesthesia Nurses" (Volume 24, Issue 3, Page 176, June 2009), the due date for the test answers was incorrectly printed as June 30, 2010. Test answers must instead be submitted before June 30, 2011, in order to receive contact hours.
The Journal of PeriAnesthesia Nursing provides original, peer-reviewed research for a primary audience that includes nurses in perianesthesia settings, including ambulatory surgery, preadmission testing, postanesthesia care (Phases I and II), extended observation, and pain management. The Journal provides a forum for sharing professional knowledge and experience relating to management, ethics, legislation, research, and other aspects of perianesthesia nursing.
