In part 2 of my review of the AAOMS annual meeting highlights, I discuss more anesthetic issues including pediatric tips and suggestions on laryngeal spasm for both how to decrease the incidence and manage the occurrence. We talked about a really good resource at www.asdahome.org to help with pediatric calculations for doses of medications as well as the Igel as a second-generation LMA. There are two cases that were discussed and were excellent learning cases and then the grand finale was an excellent lecture and presentation by a doctor Andrew Kolodny. He discussed the opioid epidemic in the United States and strategies as well as some stunning statistics. You don't want to miss this episode.
