    Tthis site is for AA Archived Message

    Hello folks,

    I am somehow deceived by how CRNAS take themselves against AAs especially on a site deserved for AAS or of future AAs. I believe that it would respectfull enough for those who come on this site to direspect the majority of us, to avoid coming here anymore. It is a shame that politics have shaped things in such a way that former clinical technicians, and two year college graduates clan claim themselves masters of one profession and even take themselves equivalent to Doctors. Can any CRNA tell me if he/she understands the scientific aspect of anesthesia apart from the routine techniques that they perform everyday. I am sure that if you ask 90% of our CRNAs what are the target cells for the different anesthetic substances they won't know, but they did learn that at school. And if you ask them the different steps to be used in an anesthetic procedure, they will tell you even if you awake them from sleep. Are we going to call CRNAs "technicians of Anesthesia" or "professionals of Anesthesia"?

    Thanks!
