No, we sit down to talk because we understand you're likely nervous, and standing over you emphasizes the vulnerable position you're in. So we sit down and talk to you at eye level to put you at ease. My first day as a doctor, the day I graduated, we had the final lecture being given by a doctor who was retiring that day (his last day as a doctor). It was very poetic. His lecture was short and sweet: pull up a chair. Even when you're in a rush, even when you don't want to spend a lot of time talking, pulling up a chair and talking to the patient sends them the message that you're there with them and that they are important. Not all docs do that. And to be honest, if I hadn't gotten that advice, I wouldn't do it myself. But I did get that advice and it has served me very well in my career.

Don't have time for a comprehensive response, so I'll summarize with an analogy from prehospital medicine, my field Saying that Anesthesiologists are just responsible for administering Anesthesia is like saying Paramedics stabilize and transport. Technically correct but it misses the depth of the work, so to speak, and without context is pretty reductive. A slightly more straightforward answer is that anesthesia is responsible for the monitoring and ensuring the safety of the patient being operated on so long as it's a parameter they have control over whether it's in pre-op, the OR, or to some extent the PACU

I do that as well, and I am so glad to see so many comments about it making a difference! It was advice I got on the day I graduated and I am thankful for it.

I had the nastiest female anesthesiologist for my last ortho surgery, she kept wanting to give me an antibiotic I'm allergic to, hercreas8ning was, I'd be incubated and under her care who cares if i react? I DO! I'm the one with hives for days. So I yelled at my surgeon at the scrub sink, HELP! Ohhhh he straightened her out FAST without breaking scrub. I agreed to an alternative antibiotic I tolerate well, and surgeon reassured me he was watching out for me, only then would I go under. Not a nice feeling.

As an Anaesthetic Nurse I can confirm... Our Anaesthetists all have a special type of chair in each theatre. Its designated to them and no one else can use it. We all sit on chairs with no back and they have the comfy recliner with back support.

When I walk into the OR to set up in the morning, I make sure the anesthesia chair is there (must adjust the height of seat and armrests). They are so much more comfortable than the other OR stools 😂

Eh- this one I actually object to a bit- I regularly do laps around the OR. First, I am shockingly bad at sitting still. I like to see the field- I wander because I’m bored- I also like asking surgeons/proceduralists annoying questions (exploiting colleagues for non credited cme is an under appreciated aspect of anesthesia that I really enjoy since we work with so many specialties. Seriously, one of our pulmonologists used to let me bronch and some of the pathologists let me look at slides with them. It keeps things fun)
@rcranes22279 ай бұрын
Yes! I also ask the surgeons questions. "So why did you do this robotic vs laparoscopic?". When do you decide it's worth doing that meniscus repair? Why a reverse shoulder vs a regular arthroplasty? How do you know when you've cut enough in that TURP?

But anesthesia has to assess whether to 2X or 3X the surgeon's 30-minute time estimate. There are some clues ... hearing calls for irrigation, or calls for suture but sometimes you just gotta look over that blue drape and see for yourself.
