Conditions of anesthesia practice on the Ivory Coast

CRNA. 2000 Aug;11(3):103-9.

Abstract

The Ivory Coast is one of the most developed countries in Africa, but conditions of practice of anesthesia are difficult. From anesthesia equipment to medications that are available, all resources are limited, and nurse anesthetists as well as sole anesthesia providers, have to manage with isolation and lack of information in uncomfortable situations.
