Hi,
I’m interested to hear what practices are occurring in other organisations in regard to anaesthetists cannulating patients pre op. I’ve heard arguments for and against using the patient as ‘the workbench’ vs using a trolley. The appeal of using the patients is that there is no cross over. I believe this can be achieved positioning a trolley correctly, but would like to hear what other places are doing.

Hi Jane,
I don’t quite understand what you mean by using the patient as a ‘workbench’, can you please clarify?

Sure Fiona,
Using the patient’s chest/abdo (covered by a blanket) to place equipment on instead of using a trolley. I know this is not best practice and I am trying to get an indication on how common this practice is elsewhere.
