I am writing to express opposition to the terminology used and implications of changing anesthetic monitoring procedures. I do not feel that anesthetic monitoring of intubated patients should be limited to LVT's and DVM's only. Our rural area, yet busy practice, would struggle to practice in line with this type of regulation, as LVT's are very few in number and we have multiple doctors performing surgical procedures at the same time in our practice. I feel very confident in the ability of many of my assistants to adequately monitor and recover patients, and simply do not see a need for this type of regulation.
