Educating Anesthesia Residents to Improve Perioperative Care for the Elderly
- The investigators will design, test and implement a education curriculum for anesthesia residents teaching geriatric anesthesiology.
- The investigators will randomize 42 anesthesia residents so that half receive an innovative, e-learning curriculum while the other half receives the current standard curriculum. We will assess their medical knowledge, and the amount of anesthesia delivered to patients after the curriculum is implemented.
- The investigators will analyze any changes in clinical practice of residents in the care of elderly patients. Enrollment will be voluntary for all residents. Also, the investigators will not interfere with clinical management of any patients by residents which are done under direct supervision of faculty.

干预/治疗 |
|---|---|
|
实验性的：Education Intervention
The investigators will use an electronic learning (E-learning) curriculum with an educational video and a user-centered checklist for anesthesia residents. This E-learning curriculum will cover how to care for geriatric patients in the preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative settings, and specific interventions that have been shown to improve postoperative outcomes in older patients. The checklist will be user-centered. It will remind providers of what they learned in the video and online curriculum, and how to apply these lessons in real-time while they are caring for older patients. |

无干预：Control
Residents randomized to this group will receive the current, standard education provided for all Duke Anesthesiology residents.
