I know the Ohio medical center did a study about the complication rates among AAs and CRNAs. According to the study, the complication rate in AAs is no higher than in CRNAs. The study looked at 46,000 cases. It wasn't published though, perhaps because they couldn't guarantee if the difficulty of the cases was randomized??? And I'm not sure how Ohio hospitals assign cases to all of their anesthetists, whether CRNAs tend to be assigned to more difficult cases? or it does not matter to them which CRNA or AA get the difficult cases.
