Could u tell me the difference between a nurse anesthetist and anesthesiologist? |
Could u tell me the difference between a nurse anesthetist and anesthesiologist? The nurse anesthetist is an RN, probably with a B.S. in nursing, he or she worked as a nurse in the ER for a year, the OR for a year, then to school for anesthesia. The anesthesiologist is an MD who specializes in this area. The nurse anesthetist can sedate the patient, but there has to be an anesthesiologist in the OR suite supervising them....there are probably a few surgeries going on at the same time. |
