Evolution and Future Prospects of Nurse Anaesthetists in Catalonia: Inception, Upskilling and Scope of Practice
The growing presence of nurse anaesthetists in Catalonia, driven by increasing procedural demand, anaesthetist shortages and nursing advancements, has led to the proposal of a collaborative model that safeguards their professional autonomy. Recognising this role, establishing clear regulatory frameworks and addressing pay disparities are essential steps towards enhancing patient care and optimising healthcare service delivery.
