Summary: <br> Regional anesthesia is Shane Garner’s passion and in this episode he and I talk about regional from a 10,000-foot view. We cover the fellowship programs available to CRNAs and the NBCRNA’s board certification exam in Non-Surgical Pain Management. We talk about how to dial in your regional anesthesia skills whether you’re a SRNA looking to graduate with a solid foundation or a CRNA who wants to find ways to incorporate more regional anesthesia into your career and the value you bring as an anesthesia provider. It’s all here in this quick run down on the current state of regional anesthesia.<br> <br> <br> <br> Shane Garner, MS, CRNA, NSPM-C is an anesthesia provider in Ripon, Michigan.
