Welcome to the Atomic Anesthesia podcast hosted by CRNA professor Dr. Rhea Temmermand and Co-Founder Sachi Lord. On this show, you'll hear clear, clinically grounded discussions designed for nurse anesthesia residents and CRNAs who want to feel more confident in complex pharmacology, physiology, and real-world anesthesia decision-making.⚠️ SIGN UP FOR OUR FREE NEWSLETTER: [NEWSLETTER SIGN-UP]Topics included in this episode:What current research shows about long-term cognitive effects of general anesthesia, including key findings from the MAAS studyHow perioperative neurocognitive disorders present, who is at risk, and how common they areThe pathophysiology behind postoperative cognitive decline, focusing on neuroinflammation and anesthetic-related brain stressPractical, evidence-based strategies to protect brain health before, during, and after surgeryWhy brain health must be a shared, institution-wide priority across perioperative care teams

A single syringe swap should never decide a patient's fate. We pull back the curtain on forty years of anesthesia medication safety to show what truly works—then tackle the hard part: getting proven safeguards into every OR, every time. From look-alike vial hazards to standardization that actually sticks, this conversation blends frontline realities with practical steps leaders can implement now.We dig into the high-stakes TXA wrong-drug, wrong-route crisis and explain why eliminating vials and moving to ready-to-administer IV bags is a must. Along the way, we unpack new FDA label warnings, the APSF–ISMP joint recommendations, and the forcing functions that prevent catastrophes, including NRFit for neuraxial routes and barcode verification at the point of care. We also surface quieter threats—vial coring, variable concentrations, and chaotic storages—and show how color-coded, readable labels and organized carts reduce cognitive load when seconds matter.Opioid safety gets equal focus. We connect preoperative risk assessment, multimodal analgesia, and smart postoperative monitoring to reduce opioid-related harm without compromising comfort. Technology has matured too: AI-driven clinical decision support can flag dosing and drug-choice risks in real time, but only if woven into workflows that clinicians trust. Throughout, we return to the implementation gap: success depends on leadership support, supply chain alignment, failure mode analysis, transparent reporting, and peer support that sustains a just culture.If you care about safer anesthesia—standardized labels and concentrations, prefilled syringes, organized storage, barcode checks, and a culture that learns—this is your playbook.

In this episode we'll explore how anesthesia changed not only medicine, but the way we think about pain, consciousness, and being human. We'll go through the journey to anesthesia which was filled with bold experiments, strange theories, and breakthroughs that changed medicine forever. This episode in particular will focus on anesthesia after Ether Day in 1846 and its journey to modern anesthesia. Featuring M4 Sheena Pubien

Dr. Lisa Mathew interviews Dru Riddle, Professor of Professional Practice and Director of Clinical Education in the School of Nurse Anesthesia at Texas Christian University and a past president of the American Association of Nurse Anesthesiology, about the role certified registered nurse anesthetists (CRNAs) play in providing anesthesia for GI care. CRNAs are essential to maintaining access to GI procedures that require anesthesia, particularly in outpatient endoscopy centers where many GI practices rely on CRNAs as their primary anesthesia workforce. UnitedHealthcare recently implemented a 15 percent reduction in reimbursement for anesthesia services provided by CRNAs, which could make it harder for outpatient endoscopy centers to maintain anesthesia coverage, push more care into hospital settings, and limit timely access to GI procedures. Join Dr. Mathew and Dr. Riddle as they discuss the importance of CRNA-delivered anesthesia, the potential impact of insurer policy changes on patient access to GI care, and practical considerations for independent GI practices that are navigating these issues.

As we finish up wellness month, today's conversation is about substance use disorder, recovery, and how people think about intentional living around this time of the year. Hosts Nickie Damico and Louisa Martin are joined by Bridget Petrillo, MS, CRNA and Rodrigo Garcia, CEO of Parkdale Center of Professionals, for an honest, deeply personal conversation about SUD, recovery, stigma, and hope within the anesthesia community. Drawing from their own lived experiences, our guests explain why anesthesia providers face unique occupational risks, how shame and fear often delay getting help, and why recovery is not only possible but life-giving. The discussion also highlights the importance of peer support, education, and institutional resources, including the AANA Helpline, Wellness Ambassador Network, and Anesthetists in Recovery (AIR) meetings. As the year comes to a close, we turn our focus to intentional living, gratitude, and wellness, especially during the holidays, when stress and isolation can intensify. The 24/7 confidential, AANA Helpline (800-654-5167) answered by addiction professionals to improve access to help for SUD. Here's some of what you'll hear in this episode:

Episdoe 2298 - Kid A.G. and El Pres coming to you from Murphy's Irish Lair, digging through old episodes for retro rewinds and getting lost in the memories They yap about a straight-laced religious husband waking from anesthesia and unloading the dirtiest fantasies on his horrified nurse as his wife cries in a corner, proof that even the most buttoned-up people are packed with filth waiting to spill out. Sobriety has stripped away Kid's excuses, so now every stupid thing he does has the potential to get called out loud, no buffer left. The Conversation veers into repressed urges and the relief of just not giving a damn. T They drool over Hottie Rachel Cook's feed, scroll endless racks on same.energy, and cringe at a trans influencer whose illegal mineral-oil-and-laxative face injections turned her into a melted nightmare. Baseball offseason chatter mixes with gripes about scattered streaming games, Diddy's mess hitting Netflix, mechanic liars, political ass-kissing, and AI-spawned songs about motorboating and soup-can dicks. Kid rants about a flat tire in the cold, government shutdown threats, and a plea for listeners to blow up the hotline 989-341-3314 with whatever drunk chaos they've got. Just two guys talking shit, experimenting with tech, and refusing to polish any of it. Go Deep.

This episode is about how to thrive in your anesthesia elective rotation. The anesthesia rotation isn't like any other rotation you've done before. Anesthesia is different. In this podcast episode I'm going to go over some general tips, how to set up the OR, preop, post op and some resources I used during my rotations. Featuring M4 Sheena Pubien.

Cosmetic surgery must be pain free.  To have painless procedures, plastic surgeons often use general anesthesia, where a breathing tube is placed and your brain is basically anesthetized.  This type of anesthesia is important for liposuction, tummy tucks, and most  breast procedures.  But general anesthesia has risks, particularly cardiac problems and postoperative nausea.  So, when possible, intravenous sedation, using propofol and versed, is used.  Face and eyelid lifts are procedures that often are done under IV sedation.  And finally, some procedures can be done with you wide awake, using only lidocaine local anesthesia.  Mole and scar revisions can be done that way, and with the proper patients, eyelid lifts, small liposuctions, and procedures like chin impalnts can also be done under local anesthesia.  On this show, we discuss the various types of anesthesia used for cosmetic surgery.

Low resource settings require much innovation and streamlining resources to meet set goals. With healthcare becoming more commercial and profit driven, missional healthcare in low resource settings faces many challenges. Sustainability is a big question with people finance , and equipment scarce and hard to come by. Missional models of healthcare often run into hurdles of sustainability, longevity and relevance even as healthcare slowly turns into business. In this setting of multifactorial challenges and increasing compliances how can missional healthcare be relevant and sustainable? Many saints of God have committed their lives to fulfil this great commission in some of the most underserved and unreached areas of the world. With the birth of Emmanuel Hospital Association (EHA) a different model of missional healthcare emerged in India. Over the last 55 years of its existence, EHA has shown that through all the challenges, this may be one of the ways to sustain missional healthcare in areas of need. With increasing divide between the rich and poor, overwhelmed government systems, a ruthless insurance system, and high end corporate healthcare, it is still possible for missional healthcare to provide low cost, high quality, technologically advanced care to people in need while remaining sustainable. We bring lessons from India and our experience with Emmanuel Hospital Association over the last 3 decades.

Ageism might not be the first ‘ism' that comes to mind in healthcare, but it's one that affects every provider eventually. Today's guest, Cynthia Farina, DNP, CRNA, RN, CNE, is an educator who has devoted much of her life to advocating for wellness, inclusion, and professional longevity. She joins Kevin and Charity to break down the subtle ways age bias shows up in anesthesia—from assumptions about “slowing down” to underestimating younger providers—and how both ends of the spectrum can experience its effects. Dr. Farina was recently part of an AANA webinar titled Respect Across the Lifespan: Tackling Ageism in Anesthesia, and her message today is clear: if you're lucky, you'll age too—so build a profession that welcomes wisdom, not just youth. Here's some of what we discuss in this episode:

Regional anesthesia, typically with a spinal or epidural, haslong been favored for cesarean births due in part to concerns about the effects that general anesthesia (GA) may have on newborns at delivery. However, data has shown that up to 1 in 6 women may experience pain with a “topped-off”labor epidural, during the cesarean. A new publication in the journal Anesthesia is now being interpreted as implying that general anesthesia may be a valid alternative electively. Is that what this new study found? Has GA been linked to postpartum depression? What about later child neurodevelopmental delays? This is a fascinating topic…Listen in for details. 1.     Langer, Sarah M.D.1; Lim, Grace M.D., M.Sc.2;Qiu, Yue M.D.3; Biaesch, Jingyuan D.O.4; Neuman, Mark D. M.D., M.Sc.5.
