Kevin and Shelly give likely and ridiculous predictions for what will hit the anesthesia world in 2017. Don't worry. They'll follow up on accuracy at the end of 2017. Listen in as we forecast the future for the next year.

Kevin, Shelly, Shira, John Ross, and Elizabeth discuss the pointed topic of "Would the Virgin Mary get an epidural?"  The discussion delves deep into direct concerns. Would God intervene? Would she have had no pain regardless? Would she agree to placement? Join the crew as we dig deep into what would we think would actually happen!

Kevin and Shelly are back with another teaching episode. The Wise Guys discuss colloids and Blood Product components in their "teaching" format where Kevin answers "I don't know", and "Magic!" a lot.

Kevin, Shelly, and Dr. Vitesh Enaker PhD Kinesiology discuss moving patients, and risks associated with positioning. We all are concerned with how patients are positioned under anesthetics, but Kevin and Shelly discuss with an expert how normal movement and placement of seemingly "neutral" positions can lead to adverse outcomes. Watch that padding!!!

Shelly and Jared delve deep into the contents of crystalloid infusions. Have you ever read the labels on these delightful infusions we give patients daily?  Per listener request- we explore the teaching aspects of the breakdown on what's in these solutions and why we choose what we choose!!!

Shelly, Jared, Brandon, and Judd join forces for an exceptional podcast on how to kill or save Halloween monsters with accessible OR tools. Let your imagination run wild and join the crew for a lively discussion on dealing with the Halloween Crew.

Kevin and Shelly do a bit of "role playing" in a listener request for a conventional teaching episode about muscle relaxant/paralytic drugs. Shelly has a "canned" lecture on paralytics routinely given to the residents about how relaxants work and how to approach their use. Kevin plays the "resident" somewhat berated about lack of knowledge about these routine medications. Enjoy the banter!!!

Shelly and guest host Jared (not Subway Jared) tell stories from the Occupational Therapy world. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you may hurl, but you'll enjoy these great stories.  Some mild language, but nothing notably explicit. Enjoy the podcast!!!

Kevin and Shelly have a discussion about opiate abuse and stories from the front lines about things we have heard about and people dealing with addiction to street pharmaceuticals and prescription abuse.

Kevin and Shelly have guest hosts The Matt and Ms. Desflurane tell wonderful stories about what they've heard about the wonderful world of anesthesia. Some background languange, feel free to listen closely.
