So how long does it take to learn the application of the drugs used in anesthesia practice?
If you learn the application of these drugs for 15 minutes (which is being generous) out of a 12 hours shift (which is mostly patient care, charting, medication administration, physician notification...), then is this an efficient use of time?
I would rather learn the clinical application of pressors over 2 years of anesthesia school than 2 years in the ICU with all the other non-anesthesia work that ICU nursing requires.
