This is the second of a two-part discussion on the shared theatre environment, featuring a panel of both surgeons and anaesthetists reaching across the curtain to reflect on the cultural similarities and differences between two specialties that can often seem divided despite working mere feet apart. Following from the previous discussion on theatre culture, this episode will focus on the differences in training cultures between the two specialities. These episodes are presented by anaesthetic consultant Deirdre Conway, orthopaedic ST3 Karen Chui, anaesthetic ST5 Stuart Edwardson and CT1 surgical trainee Karishma Shah. This is the last episode of the Theatre for 2021! We will return in the New Year with more dispatches from the world of surgical innovation.
