"I am an #anesthesiologist. I erase consciousness, deny memories, steal time, immobilize the body. I alter heart rate, blood pressure & breathing, and I reverse these effects. I eliminate pain during a procedure & prevent it afterward" - Dr. Henry Przybylo. #WorldAnaesthesiaDay

Anesthesiologists do you routinely use #ketamine for spine surgery? Intraoperative ketamine may NOT be associated with lower rates of #opioid use 3/6/12 months after lumbar #spine #surgery including in patients with opioid use disorder @IARS_Journals ovid.com/10.1213/ANE.0000000…

Well said! The real skill of anesthesiologists is anticipating, avoiding, identifying early and effectively managing perioperative crisis situations. #patientsafety #anesthesia #SNACC2026 @SNACCNeuro
What ever crisis is happening you cannot stop it …until you stop it. Be it drugs, rapid return to the OR or interventional radiology. Speed saves lives.
