NovPod, a beginner’s guide to anaesthetics, Episode 12: Drugs, part 2 feat. Dr Rahul Bandopadhyay

It's all to play for in the second part of our special anaesthetic drugs game show with Eoin and special guest Dr Rahul Bandopadhyay going head-to-head again. Who will take home the coveted (possibly fictitious?) Golden ETT? Is there actually an interesting fact about ondansetron? Let's find out.

The Novpod: a beginner's guide to anaesthetics is created, edited, and co-hosted by Dr Eoin Dore and Dr Duncan Kemp. We are two anaesthetic registrars on a mission to help our new anaesthetic colleagues get to know some of the new concepts you will come across in your novice period, hopefully helping to take away any anxiety around starting your time in anaesthetics.

The NovPod is presented by Anaesthesia on Air, in association with the Royal College of Anaesthesia.
