Welcome to Anaesthesia Tutorial of the Week (ATOTW), a weekly web-based tutorial run by the WFSA. Our aim is to support anaesthesia training, particularly in the developing world where access to anaesthesia education is often limited. Anyone however, is welcome to use our materials. You may either view Tutorials on line, or receive them by email. If you wish to receive tutorials by email, please send your details (name, hospital, country and email address to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
)

If you would like to contribute a Tutorial to ATOTW, please contact This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
who will arrange contact with the editor for the particular area covered by your suggestion. All Tutorials will be peer reviewed by at least one expert.

If you are authoring a tutorial, please use the links in the “downloads” section at the bottom of this page to download the formatting guide and template document.  There is also an author declaration form which should be completed before submission.

Once a Tutorial has appeared on the website, it may be downloaded by checking through our archive. TOTW will cover a number of topics, and will be presented in a variety of styles. We are publishing to present a learning package that is practical for all readers. Topics are divided into general anaesthesia, obstetrics, paediatrics, regional, intensive care, pain medicine and basic science. Suggestions for topics are welcome.

ATOTW on mobile devices

All of the tutorials may be downloaded in pdf format (see link at the bottom of each tutorial). You may transfer these pdf files to your handheld device and thus view the TOTW on the move by using any pdf viewer.   You may find that your tutorials (particularly images which may have been compressed) display better if you have the latest version.

The website has now been optimised for mobile phone internet browsers and tutorials should be viewable on these devices.

We are developing a smartphone app for viewing and storing tutorials on your device.  A link will be placed here when it is available.
