New machine could one day replace anesthesiologists - The Washington Post
Interesting concept. We need to accept that the era of medicine is changing. It's absurd to claim that a machine could replace a doctor. It can perform some of the functions the doctor performs, but "replace" is silly. I sedate my own patients for procedures using the dreaded propofol...
i also scoff at the $150 charge. Ain't nothing $150 in a procedure that involves a machine. I would love to see the line item claiming $150. My wife's PCA was nearly $1000 and she never used it after a c-section.
