2009 Anesthesia & Perioperative Care: Multi-animal Anesthesia Delivery With Conserved Stereotaxic Accuracy

Team Members:  Edward Ha, Iris Jiang, Kim Nguyen

Capstone Client:  Jennifer Shih, Stratman Lab, UCSF

Purpose/Goal:
Over 30 million people in the U.S. per year undergo general anesthesia for medical procedures. Research has shown that long exposure times to anesthesia may have detrimental effects on the brain. The Capstone team introduced a modular design that integrates the aspects of large-scale anesthesia delivery with stereotaxic accuracy.
