Induction is a critical stage of surgery, and mistakes can have serious consequences. By following S.A.M.M.T.I.D.E, CRNAs can help avoid common induction mistakes and help ensure a safe and successful surgery. In this video, our nurse anesthesiology professor discuss the steps involved in using S.A.M.M.T.I.D.E and how it can help improve induction
