One thousand one hundred and thirty five anesthesiologists possess ABA special certification in Critical Care Medicine nationwide as of December 2004. There are 37,736 Diplomates of the American Board of Anesthesiology. Individuals possessing double board certification in both Anesthesiology and Critical Care Medicine comprise only 3% of the total population of Board Certified Anesthesiologists. However, many practicing anesthesiologists, without specific critical care specialization, are frequently involved with the perioperative care of ICU patients. Perioperative consultation in the ICU occurs in a myriad of settings including: preoperative evaluation, airway management, ventilator management, pain management, and ICU based procedures such as central line placement. A number of operative procedures traditionally performed in the OR are now commonly performed safely in the ICU setting avoiding the need for transport of the critically ill ICU patient.
