The ubiquity of oxygen in the curriculum is directly correlated with its importance! One of many episodes that focus on the facets o knowledge needed to understand how oxygen does its thing. 

Today, when too much oxygen is a bad thing, how it is obtained, transported in hospitals and the negative implications of its use + some history that I know you all deeply desire!

Nitrous Oxide, once a corner stone of 'passing the gas' has been progressively displaced by better agents, think sevoflurane with less PONV, remifentanil for rapid titratable pain relief and even desflurane for its speedier offset.

This episode handles everything you need to know and more for the exams!

The 2025 Bumper Christmas Special, delving into the delights of Ether, Enflurane and Explosions (+ fires, flames and/or power metal)

We find out a little bit about the first Ether anaesthetic, and then get to grips with what an explosion is, and why understandably, it was problematic for anaesthetists.

I've checked the house, there are no polar bears so we should be fine to talk about this drug.

Desflurane is pricey, polar bear poison that you may get examined on! Check it out!
