How do nurse anesthetists fit into this? They play major role in US. Seems easier to train more nurse anesthetists than anesthesiologists.
-
Absolutely. CRNAs provide the majority of anesthesia care in rural America, without anesthesiologists.
-
Even in urban areas it's usually an anesthesiologist overseeing several CRNAs, who are in OR the whole time w/anesthes. moving between them.

Agreed. I'm a CRNA and work in both models (ACT and solo) at 2 different institutions. In both settings I stay with pt entire time.
