Anaesthesia on Air
S2 Ep7: NovPod, a beginner’s guide to anaesthetics, Episode 7: Induction and airways
31 Jul 2023
NovPod returns with A&E trainee and stand-up comedian Dr Kwame Asante discussing airways and induction of anaesthesia. We also reflect with Kwame about his anaesthetic novice period from his perspective as a non-anaesthetic trainee. The Novpod: a beginner's guide to anaesthetics is created, edited, and co-hosted by Dr Eoin Dore and Dr Duncan Kemp. We are two anaesthetic registrars on a mission to help our new anaesthetic colleagues get to know some of the new concepts you will come across in your novice period, hopefully helping to take away any anxiety around starting your time in anaesthetics. The NovPod is presented by Anaesthesia on Air, in association with the Royal College of Anaesthesia. Please note that all opinions expressed in the podcast are those of the individuals appearing on the podcast and do not necessarily reflect the views of the RCoA.
