The Standards are reviewed and updated on an ongoing basis by a team of clinical practice experts and are republished biennially.

The 2023-2024 edition of the ASPAN Standards contains principles of safety and ethics in perianesthesia practice, perianesthesia practice standards, practice recommendations, position statements, resources from partnering organizations, and interpretive statements which provide clarity and definition to key elements of the standards.

New position statements include a position statement on electronic nicotine delivery systems and vaping products, a position statement on human trafficking, and a timely position statement on emergency preparedness.
