Day in the Life of an Anesthesiologist

By Samuel Grindstaff

What a wonderful way to spend a day. We start out with our esteemed patient who is awaiting the cold knife of the surgeon and we stand to the side making sure the surgeon can do his bidding without the patient writhing in pain. That will happen after the anaesthesia wears off.

I stand by my colleague as he fills syringes full of fentanyl and versed. These medications will make the patient feel good as they are wheeled back to the dungeon of the OR. The OR itself is a cold box full of cold steal and a variety of monitors tubes and IV bags.

Without knocking the patient out this would make for a very affective form of torture. The patient is strapped to a table. Arms tied down. Then the body is contorted so the orifice that needs the slice is available for the slicing. Once positioned a cold iodine solution is washed over the naked skin, painting it a sickly yellow. Blue drapes are then prepared that cover all but what is necessary to be cut. Then with scalpel in hand, slice. The insides are pushed around. The smell of electrocartery poisons the air.

So it is that on the head of the table we sit. Watching the patient. Giving drugs to the point of cardiac and pulmonary depression. The patient cannot even manage a breath without the aid of the ventilator by our side. When the Holocaust is over the patient awakens and feels pain later.

So the next time you stop by your local OR to get rid of your spare parts (or just to fix the ones you've got) thank the men and women at the top of the table that make sure you don't remember any of it.
