In this episode, anesthesiologist Matthew Sherrer and health care consultant Martin Nowak join us to explore the evolving landscape of anesthesia care in the era of AI and automation. We’ll discuss the rise and fall of the Sedasys platform, the current advancements in AI-driven technologies like Edwards Life Science’s Hypotension Prediction Index, and the future of the anesthesia workforce. Can technology ever replace the human touch in the operating room? What are the early warning signs of a shift towards automation, and how can anesthesia professionals adapt strategically?

Matthew Sherrer is an anesthesiologist. Martin Nowak is a health care consultant.

They discussed the KevinMD article, “How AI is reshaping the anesthesia workforce.”

Our presenting sponsor is DAX Copilot by Microsoft.
