Regardless of who is getting surgery or why........who is delivering the anesthetic? Military CRNA training sites are some of the most difficult and highly regarding training sites in the country. Have been before Anesthesiologist EVER existed pre World War II.


What kind of anesthesia were they administering pre world war 2?

Not the drugs you're using now. Propofol wasn't available until the 70s and isoflurane not until the 80s. Thankfully, top scientists and physician anesthesiologists have advanced the drugs, equipment, and monitors you now take for granted; thus allowing for the safety profile the specialty enjoys today.

Also, I highly doubt a military CRNA training site compares to an anesthesiologist's training.

Family doc is one of the most difficult things to do in all of medicine.

I used to think it was more wiping noses and a lot less vent management in patients with septic shock.

Disrespect is traditionally a noun. That verb usage is pretty new age and not exactly traditional grammar.

However, it is/was not my intent to demonstrate any disrespect for nurses. I think they are, as a group, very qualified to be nurses and function in that role. I do not think they are qualified to practice medicine, as they have not trained for that and they did not go to school for that. So yes, they are not qualified for that

People who hurl names often have nothing substantive to say

Are you implying 1) I am a legislator? 2) Someone else on here is or 3) they're reading this thread the night before or during the vote on the house floor and it sways their vote?

People who repeat what others have said (hint, I just said the same thing to you) have nothing to add to the conversation. Good Lord you are such a douche.

You do realize that not every NP feels this way right? We don't all go around wearing long white coats trying to act like MDs. I was required to get a white coat and place my credentials on it. If I had a choice, I wouldn't wear one.

Not every NP is for this, some of us understand our limitations.


This. All of this.

Hell, even in school it was a requirement that we wore white coats during clinicals.

All I'm saying is the ones pushing this bill are trying to independently practice medicine and they're not trained for that. Don't see how that's rude but even if it is: the point is that advocate for the patients and quality care

Every time the physician groups have tried to hold their own members accountable for their participation in CPAs, the NPs have gone crying to their legislator friends, who then threaten the physicians with hostile legislation. After the NPs lose this session, I expect the physician community will address this directly.
Another factor is the Federal Trade Commission, who blatantly favor NPs, and are using a very narrow ruling about the dental board in North Carolina to pressure legislatures nationwide into allowing independent practice.

Say what you want, ask a level headed anesthesiologist, army trained anesthetists are the BEST trained period. I say this and I am not one.

What makes an 'army trained anesthetists' so good? Most military residencies are inferior to their civilian counterparts.
