A survey of anesthesiologists' views of operating room recycling.

abstract：BACKGROUND:For emergent procedures, in-house teams are required for immediate patient care. However, for many procedures, there is time to bring in a call team from home without increasing patient morbidity. Anesthesia providers taking subspecialty or backup call from home are required to return to the hospital within ...
