Anesthesiology career report
Anesthesiology Report
For this report I contacted an anesthesiologist and asked him about what it took school-wise to be an anesthesiologist. If you don't already know, an anesthesiologist is a physician trained in anesthesia and preoperative medicine. Before surgeries, an anesthesiologist determines what anesthetic and how much of it to use on the patient. This job involves a lot of risk and pressure because if you apply slightly too much anesthetics, it will kill the patient, and if you apply too little, the patient could wake up during surgery and go into shock. Also, if you use the wrong anesthetic, it could kill the patient or they will wake up.
From my research, the average anesthesiologist make around $150,000 to $500,00 annually, depending on where they live. However, this salary comes from at least eleven years of college. The anesthesiologist I contacted had two extra years for training. The eleven years involves an undergraduate college degree that includes pre-medical requirements, four years of medical school, and at least four years of anesthesiology residency. The anesthesiology residency also requires a one year medical or surgical internship followed by three ears of anesthesiology training. Anesthesiology residents face multiple exams during each year of residency except for the first year. These exams include physiology, pathophysiology, pharmacology, and other sciences from medical school.
After residency, a lot of anesthesiologists complete additional years of training in fields that anesthesiologists need to know. Most anesthesiologists are certified by a specialty-medical board called the American Board of Anesthesiology. To become certified, an anesthesiologist must take a written and oral exam. This board-certification is required by many workplaces for anesthesiologists and in most cases certified anesthesiologists are paid $50,000 to $100,000 more than their uncertified counterparts.
