  • ACCRAC saved me in anesthesia school

    I’m in CRNA school, and I have been listening to this podcast for the past 2.5 years. I’m planning on re-listening most of the episodes for board prepping in the next few months. I love the core concepts breakdown and board question strategies. Thank you for sharing your knowledge & expertise.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Episode 334: Master Clinician Part 11: Dr. Phil Adams
Q: What is a practical tip you give residents for managing crises in the OR, especially when you're tempted to act quickly?
The guidance is to take a deliberate pause, assess, and communicate with the team before acting; sometimes doing nothing for a few seconds can avert mishandling a critical situation.
Episode 333: Tiffany Moon
Q: How did Tiffany decide to branch out from clinical anesthesia into other ventures?
She describes initial focus on clinical excellence, followed by gradual exploration spurred by social media, timing of the pandemic, and opportunities that aligned with her interests in beauty, entrepreneurship, and empowerment for women.
Episode 329: SGLT2 inhibitors and GLP1 Receptor Agonists with Dr. Tyler Jones
Q: What do guidelines say about GLP-1 receptor agonists and preop management?
ASA and British guidelines differ: some suggest holding a dose or gastric ultrasound; British guidelines generally favor continued GLP-1 inhibitors, while ASA emphasizes risk stratification and imaging when possible.
Episode 329: SGLT2 inhibitors and GLP1 Receptor Agonists with Dr. Tyler Jones
Q: What are SGLT2 inhibitors and how do they work perioperatively?
SGLT2 inhibitors reduce renal glucose reabsorption, raise ketogenesis risk, and may lower insulin with potential for ketoacidosis, especially under stress; evidence is mixed on perioperative risk and whether holding the drug reduces this risk.
Episode 328: AnesthesiaGawd
Q: How do you gauge what content resonates with your audience?
I monitor DMs and engagement metrics closely to see what topics my followers are interested in.
