471 Nurse Anesthesiologist–Who is at the Head of the Bed–Michelle Gaines - a podcast by Pat Iyer MSN RN LNCC

An LNC must understand the specific nature of the roles different kinds of medical practitioners play in clinical settings. The subcategories of those who practice anesthesia have been undergoing rapid changes and evolution. New terminology may baffle the LNC reading medical data.



Michelle Gaines, certified registered nurse anesthetist (CRNA), who is also an LNC, provides an expert analysis of the various roles and titles involved in the field to bring clarity to titles and abbreviations that may seem obscure. She describes the differences between a nurse anesthetist, a physician anesthesiologist, and an anesthesia assistant. In addition, she outlines the history of anesthesiology with some details that may surprise you.She gives special attention to the challenges of working in the field of anesthesiology during the epidemic. The particular physical proximity to the patient presents dangers that are aggravated by the lack of requirements in some areas that patients be tested for Covid or show proof of vaccination.



The patient who receives anesthesia has no idea what goes on during an operation. Many others are unfamiliar with the anesthesiologic role. This podcast brings the realities of this challenging medical field into focus with valuable and pertinent information.https://youtu.be/b0hkwhqwirM
