Could you folks help me out and suggest some research topics regarding anesthesia please. I wan't to do my undergrad research project in this area because I am interested in becoming a CRNA some day. Thanks everyone...:)

How about the effect of previous exposure to marijuana on pain relief and sedation???

No offense, but are you serious? I live in Hawaii and this place would be PERFECT to do research on this topic :chuckle. Anyway, how would I do this? seriously...

Step 1. would be to see what other research there has been on this topic. I only stated it because if we have an OD who is a known user of marijuana it seems to take a LOT more diprivan/sedation to calm them. IF you do undertake it keep us posted on how you go.

Thank you sooooo much, I will talk to my prof about this and see how and what I can do.

Are you saying they OD on pot??? or something else. I had learned that if you have a pt who is excited (like someone on a CNS stimulant) it would take more of a depressant to bring them down... I don't know.
