This Primary FRCA podcast episode introduces you to Isoflurane, a ubiquitous and fairly cheap volatile anaesthetic agent that always seems to be left alone while its sevoflurane friend lives the high life, This episode probably won't sway your use, but if you walk into an anaesthetic halfway thru and have no idea what your ET for MAC-1 is, then this is for you!

GasGasGas - Opioids Quiz, the second attempt
Yet again, the sound engineer has been sacked........
Apologies that this is a second attempt at an Opioids Quiz, the music cuts went rather wrong - so we've slung the music in the bin!
This is a straight up quiz, with gaps so you can think up an answer and then, as you might expect... an Answer!
The goal isn't to give you verbatim words to regurgitate but to build up these facts in your mind so then next time you cover it you've foundations to build upon!

GasGasGas - Clonidine
Clonidine is a drug found in many a cupboard, acting as a useful adjunct for pain, sedation and having utility in smoothing out post op emergence, it has off license use as a adjunct in regional and neuraxial blockade (at least in the literature!)
