This piece is part of our coverage of The International Anesthesia Research Society (IARS) annual meeting.
Here our guest discusses his dual roles in patient safety and quality improvement and his research in spatial sciences; focusing on how environmental and social factors impact health. Can the integration of environmental data into electronic health records allow us to better understand and address health determinants like air quality? What are the practical applications for healthcare providers?

“We are seriously scientifically evidence-based looking for solutions on the non-pharmacological side and music has turned out to be one of them”
This fascinating piece takes its cue from an excellent paper; “The Effect of Perioperative Music on Medication Requirement and Hospital Length of Stay: A Meta-analysis” which you can read here: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31356272/
Presented by Desiree Chappell with her guest Marcus Klimek, Director Residency Training Program, Vice-Chairman, Associate Professor bij, Erasmus MC, Deptartment of Anesthesiology.

Patient monitoring has made some significant strides forward over the last decade. Nowadays most people are familiar with the idea. Where are we now with this essential aspect of healthcare? How far should we take the commitment to monitoring a patient? What about “wearable” technology both inside and outside the institution?
Desiree Chappell speaks with Meera Joshi, Specialist registrar at Ashford and St Peter's Hospital NHS Foundation Trust and clinical research fellow in the department of surgery cancer at Imperial College London.
