“Anesthesia Jeopardy!” has been around since 1991 and many former residents and faculty have enjoyed playing. Jeff Schwartz has created a combination of hardware, software and crafted questions that allow participants and audiences to play in the style of the popular game show. The direct descendant of David Silverman’s “College Bowl”, it has been an annual June treat for the department. “Anesthesia Jeopardy!” has been seen at Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center, Mount Sinai School of Medicine and Duke University. “Anesthesia Jeopardy!” is also hosted by the Connecticut State Society of Anesthesiologists where the Yale and UConn residencies compete.
Anesthesia Jeopardy! 2018 was won by “On Shortage" (Robert Qiu, Brandon Roth, James Kurfess). “DEM Chiefs” (Daina Blitz, Emily Harmon, Mark Friedland) and “Ether” (Amy Willett, Arkadi Beloiartsev, Dan Haddad gave them quite a challenge. But the real winners were the audience who got to play along, root for their favorites and learn a thing or two.
