Welcome to the next installment of the Anesthesia Patient Safety podcast hosted by Alli Bechtel.  This podcast is an exciting journey towards improved anesthesia patient safety.

Have you used a distal pharyngeal airway? Do you use a Pyxis machine to retrieve medications? Today, we have a couple Articles Between Issues to discuss about keeping patients safe especially from hypoxemia in the GI Suite with the help of a DPA and when using an automated drug dispensing cabinet or Pyxis machine. Tune in to learn about these threats to patient safety and how to help keep patients safe.

Additional sound effects from: Zapsplat.
