Risques et intermittence en anesthésie : gestion des risques pour soi, pour l'organisation et pour les patients

Flexibility as short time contracts and multiple employers is the main feature of intermittency. Working in such conditions is one of the ways to escape to stress and burnout for some physicians. Whether intermittent anesthesiologists increased the anesthetic related morbidity and mortality risks remain difficult to assert. Welcoming and integration of intermittent anesthesiologists in permanent staffs is far from ideal. Their integration into the local organization and collective work as non-permanent members of the staff needs to elaborate special procedures to guarantee the comfort of the permanent physicians and the safety of patients. Some modifications on these end-points should help to contain anesthetic risks.
