Enhancing Anesthesia in the Office: Leveraging Technology for Efficiency and Safety, with Dr. Dallen Mill (Anesthesiologist)
During this episode, Dr. Dallen Mill joins us to share a few technologies that have been so beneficial to him that he would almost describe them as magic. We kick off our conversation with a brief overview of the history of anesthesia before we unpack how to address respiratory compromise and airway emergencies. Dr. Mill shares four studies on two options for laryngoscopies, discusses tips for negotiating the tube through the vocal cords, and offers some tech suggestions to support the process. We also talk about IV placement, the power of having a longer IV catheter, how to optimize the process with the use of an ultrasound device, and much more! For an informative review of some of the most helpful technology available in anesthesia today, don’t miss this conversation with Dr. Dallen Mill.
