Welcome to the next installment of the Anesthesia Patient Safety podcast hosted by Alli Bechtel. This podcast is an exciting journey towards improved anesthesia patient safety.

Today, we review the article from the February 2018 ASPF Newsletter, “Use of Methadone in the Perioperative Period” by Murphy and Szokol. So, what is the big deal with Methadone, what makes this a unique opioid analgesic, and why are we seeing an increasing role for perioperative methadone administration? Tune in to find the answers to these questions and so much more.
