At an academic/university hospital, the anesthesiologist might be a resident MD in his or her first, second, or third year of anesthesia training, and that resident will then be supervised by a faculty member who is responsible for either one operating room or two. It doesn’t have to be this way.

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 a university hospital, a faculty member may supervise two operating rooms each with a resident anesthesiologist-in-training in attendance.
An easier internship experience – How nice would it be to have the chance to complete the supervised clinical internship at your local facility and under the direction of surgeons of your choice? That’s exactly what RASA offers students! Our program teaches multi-specialty, we don’t require rotations in every specialty.
Dr. Halsted’s principles of surgical training included the need to understand the scientific basis of disease, provide supervised care of surgical patients and gain increasing responsibility during training, leading to independent practice. Halsted , MD. The last 25 years have been a time of dramatic change in neurosurgical education.
If you work in a practice which utilizes an anesthesia care team, where one physician anesthesiologist may supervise, for example, 4 Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists (CRNAs), then a physician’s income is increased because he or she is billing for and supervising care for multiple concurrent surgeries.

One interesting point relates to who trainees should anaesthetise with distant supervision and how this has changed over time. Getting it right first time is key to reducing out environmental impact, and this new editorial from Coldwell and Craig outlines how this might be done by better deploying anaesthetic skills and workforce.
It is 2030 and I am scheduled to supervise anesthesia for a 40-yr-old patient undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy. First, there was manual transmission, then automatic transmission, double clutch systems, navigation systems, all sorts of safety assist systems…soon, there will be self-driving cars. How will we do anesthesia in the future?
