Ever notice how our high-fidelity simulations can sometimes feel like reality TV? I mean, we’ve all seen students break character mid-scenario, which leads to some pretty hilarious moments! It’s like watching a medical drama unfold, except with a lot more laughter and way less drama — especially when someone forgets to turn off the ‘patient’s’ oxygen tank during a code.
I’ve found monitoring pet reactions to new opioid dosages is key — like, my cat really loved that dose last week! 
How will you adjust dosages based on those guidelines?
It’s wild to think how nurse anesthetists went from the mid-1800s to now being key players in the OR — kinda like how coffee has evolved from just a morning pick-me-up to an essential life force! I wonder how many more roles we’ll see change as technology advances. Got any fun stories from the early days of anesthesia?
It’s amazing how nurse anesthetists have been doing this since the 1800s. One thing I always find interesting is that some CRNAs in rural areas still do it all — they’re like the Swiss Army knives of anesthesia. What do you think about the changing role of CRNAs in different healthcare settings lately?
