Very few patients die in the operating room, but significant numbers die in the weeks that follow. In this model, an MD anesthesiologist supervises up to four CRNAs who work in up to four different operating rooms simultaneously. It’s officially defined as the 30-day time period following surgery.

In an anesthesia care team, a physician anesthesiologist supervises up to four operating rooms and each operating room is staffed with a certified registered nurse anesthetist (CRNA). In many hospital operating rooms, a solitary physician anesthesiologist attends to his or her patient alone.

Imagine this scenario: You’ve just finished anesthetizing a patient in a hospital setting, and the patient now requires transport from the operating room (OR) to the post-anesthesia care unit (PACU). The following five studies document that unmonitored patients frequently have low oxygen levels following transport to the recovery room.

One of the changes our profession has gone through is an ever-increasing demand to multitask, be it by running more than one operating room, or by simultaneously performing administrative or teaching tasks. It is 2030 and I am scheduled to supervise anesthesia for a 40-yr-old patient undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

This is what the anesthesia experience is like for most patients: You show up for surgery, and some anesthesia professional you’ve never met or talked to appears 10 minutes before you are to be wheeled into the operating room. The anesthesia professional might be an MD, a CRNA, or both a MD and a CRNA might be involved.

In many private practice anesthesia groups, physician anesthesiologists supervise multiple nurse anesthetists in multiple operating rooms. They will have to provide a higher level of service, and become more involved outside the operating room, in perioperative leadership, and in their local hospital politics and economics.

Instead of writing histories, examining patients, making diagnoses, and prescribing medications as interns and internal medicine doctors do, anesthesia residents are rendering their patients unconscious, applying acute pharmacology, and inserting tubes and needles into patients in operating rooms at all hours of the day and night.

Anesthesiologists work in operating rooms and intensive care units—acute care settings which demand vigilance, steady hands, and quick thinking. These arenas will be: 1) diagnosis of images, 2) clinics, and 3) operating rooms/intensive care units. What will an AIM robot doctor look like?

In contrast, other operating room professionals are usually relaxed and winding down at this time, because the surgical procedure is finished. If an anesthesia care team is attending to you, how many rooms is each physician anesthesiologist supervising? If the patient has an ET tube, it is usually removed.

An operating room anesthesia practice is somewhat akin to being a taxi cab driver. You can expect to see a higher penetration of the anesthesia care team, where one physician anesthesiologist may supervise, for example, 4 CRNAs, and a decrease in practices where an MD anesthesiologist stays with each patient 100% of the time.

Rather than physician anesthesiologists personally performing anesthesia, expect to see CRNAs supervised by physician anesthesiologists in an anesthesia care team, or in some states, CRNAs working alone. There will be a paucity of new drugs to change the practice of operating room anesthesia.

A physician anesthesiologist supervising four CRNAs in four operating rooms could do four times as many cases per year, so a predicted incidence would be 16-20 cardiac arrests in a 30-year career. A busy anesthesiologist doing his or her own cases performs 1000 anesthetics per year. References: 1. Irita K, et al.
