In Japan, a relative shortage of practicing anesthesiologists continues to be a national issue. To address this issue, some Japanese medical institutions have started developing curriculums to train non-physician perioperative anesthesia personnel, including nurse practitioners and perianesthesia nurses. We urgently need to establish a national standard for the education programs that train these extended non-physician anesthesia care providers. A certified registered nurse anesthetist educational program at a large academic medical center in the United States is described in detail as a reference. Highly systematic educational programs using simulation, didactics, and full clinical subspecialty rotations are ideal if not easily achievable in many current training institutions in Japan. Anesthesia assistant education programs in the United States can be used as an additional reference to create a national educational program in Japan.
在日本，执业麻醉师相对短缺仍是一个全国性问题。为了解决这个问题，一些日本医疗机构已开始制定课程，培训非医师围手术期麻醉人员，包括护士从业者和围手术期护士。我们急需为培训这些扩展的非医师麻醉护理提供者的教育项目建立国家标准。本文详细介绍了美国一所大型学术医疗中心的认证注册护士麻醉师教育项目，以供参考。如果在日本的许多现有培训机构中难以实现，那么使用模拟、教学和全面临床专科轮转的高度系统化教育项目是理想的选择。美国的麻醉助理教育项目可以作为一个额外的参考，为日本创建一个国家教育项目。
