This podcast includes discussion about psychological
optimisation for surgery; who should have it, what does it mean and
how does it work? Further conversation moves into weaning patients
off opioids in advance of surgery and cutting their dependency
afterwards. Also, the question of consent to opioids during and
after surgery comes up - should we be educating patients more and
is it time to look more deeply at the issue of consent?
Hosted by Desiree Chappell and Vicki
Morton featuring Dr. Padma Gulur,
anesthesiologist and a Pain Medicine Specialist who sees patients
at Davis Ambulatory Surgical Center, Duke Pain Medicine and Duke
Perioperative Pain Care.
