@atheistdude I've heard it's even harder being an anaesthetist. #medicine #medmastodon #anaesthetics #anaesthesiology #atheism

Imagine getting to the point in #American #Healthcare where #anaesthesiology is optional, and people decline it because they need the operation but can't afford much. And the doctors going ahead without anaesthesiology because they want to get paid, know the operation is necessary, and understand the patient's predicament

Which sounds like a #dystopian medieval torture routine

And it is

And yet considering the nature of American Healthcare it sounds entirely plausible

When anaesthetists talk about regional anaesthesia, do they mean sending an entire postal code to sleep? 🧐

I am reminded by @DataDrivenMD's thread about #anaesthesiology and #bicycling of the most stereotypical bit of #German humour I was exposed to.
My first summer in Germany I got into a bike accident. I moved over to let someone pass on a bike path, and my front tire left the pavement. This was on a downhill at about 30km/h. I was wearing a helmet, and did a pretty good forward roll and so only ended up injuring my wrists.

So are we at the stage where there is an #anaesthetic / #anaesthesiology Mastodon presence? Or any #HumanFactors #ergonomics #patientSafety?
I guess the inherent conservatism of the medical world might mean that they’re still mostly over at Twitter.
