About this listen

Hey friends! In our second episode about anesthesia, we talk about inhaled agents, in contrast to last episode where we talked about IV anesthetics and paralytics. We begin to talk about MAC (minimal alveolar concentration), how the gasses work, and side effect profiles of different gasses. Specifically, we talk about reasons you wouldn't have to use gasses, such as severe post-operative nausea or history of or susceptibility to malignant hyperthermia. I hope you learn something new in the episode!
