Why Anesthesia
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 3 дек 2019
- Anesthesia is a unique hands-on medical specialty that allows the practitioner to add their own flavor into their practice. I went into anesthesia because of the procedures, the mastery of physiology and my love for the operating room, but don't count out the fact that there is no note writing, no rounding, and no clinic! Find out what makes Anesthesia special here.

This is a great video! So informative. Thank you so much for this. I’ve been thinking about going into anesthesia when I go to med school and watching this just made me more sure of the career path I want to take.
Awesome video! You put out on paper many things here that people intuit, but usually don't explicitly verbalize or even think.
Do you feel like you still have a Broad knowledge of General medicine still?
This is the best video I've seen so far. To me I didn't think that "the good" were "noble" enough reasons to pursue this specialty. And "the bad" are actually pros to me as well. Thanks sooo much
Edkens, thank you so, so much for your kind comments! my only request is that if you like the content, to subscribe and pass it on to anyone you think it may help! :D I also hope that this helped to enlighten you a little to what makes this practice so special, at least to me!
@@CountBackwardsFrom10 you are the best. You have one new subscriber
@@CountBackwardsFrom10 I have an idea that you might consider for one of your next videos: "How to study in anesthesia residency". You could probably go over the different ressources and platforms (your youtube channel for example) that you think could benefit the resident.
Just got into med school. Uber interested in gas 🫁!!!!!!
What do you think the practice of physician anesthesia will look like in the future as more CRNA’s gain independent practice? Will it still be practical for physicians to do individual cases or will they manage multiple OR’s increasingly?
Or even tail end charlie in a Ww2 bomber. Isolation wise.

Your first pro might be why anesthesia gets a bad rep with pharmacists (if I understand correctly), apparently a common complaint is that anesthesia isnt good with charting. At the beginning you mentioned PA watching this video because they are interested in CAA, I just wanted to mention that a majority of CAA students are pre-med/pa/dental/etc students who changed their mind. It has some similarities with an Anesthesiologist but less school time, better life/work balance, etc. In the end anesthesia is awesome and I am happy there are different roles people can pursue.
I'm sure you get asked this a lot, but I am in med school right now, and really leaning toward anaesthesia, but there is the issue of CRNA encroachment that looms large over the specialty. Do you see this as a big issue, or is it just much ado about nothing?
You fail to mention that 80% of Anethesiologist end up getting Parkinsons disease, due to leakage gases they work with. Out of 9 docs on my Dads team when he was an Anethesiologist 7 of his team members ended up with Parkinsons. Thats a huge sacrifice for a career not only for the person but their family. My Dad was 64 when he passed diagnosed with Parkinsons when he was 47, Heartbreaking too watch.
There just no way in the world that you believe that 80% of anesthesiologists are ending up with Parkinsons. I wouldnt apply your dad's team outcome to the entire population of anesthesiologists. Come on now.
Anesthesiologist here.
Your claims here are a bunch of BS.
1. We don’t perform procedures. Intubating isn’t a procedure. Even placing central lines and arterial lines are no more a “procedure” than tying your shoes. They are simple, mundane tasks. You could argue that regional anesthesia involves procedures, but they are exceedingly simple ones too. Only pain specialists do procedures.
2. We are not consultants. We perform tasks that are delegated to us. Surgeons dictate to us the kind of anesthesia we want, and with little or no input, we deliver it. I have fellowship training in hearts, and I’m still in the same boat. If you think you’re a “consultant”, you have a seriously overgrown sense of importance.
In fact, the only thing you said that was completely accurate was that we wear scrubs.
Have you tried the burnout clinic on 35th and Wells?
