You spoke, we listened.

CRNA school is extremely demanding--tight schedules, limited resources, and tough academic and clinical challenges. Not to mention, self-doubt and burnout are all too real.

You shouldn't have to face CRNA school alone.

After 2 years of researching, designing and building, we're excited to finally share our next-generation educational platform for CRNAs. Here's a sneak peek of what you'll find:

• A space-themed platform to make learning entertaining
• Interactive lessons with multimedia features, plus dark and light mode
• A community hub to connect with other CRNAs, NARs and RNs
• Gamification with space gems, badges, exclusive gear, levels and leaderboards

And that’s just the beginning! Our official launch is right around the corner with even more major features, including a quiz bank and flashcard builder—just as many of you requested.

Here’s how to join our “SNEAK PEEK COMPETITION” this Sunday, August 10th at 8 am CST:

1. Attend the AANA Annual Congress in person, or join our competition from home.

2. Find Rhea or Sachi at the event to get your lanyard, a free drug badge, and instructions. If you are joining from home, visit our website (www.atomicanesthesia.com).

3. Create a FREE account.

The competition runs for just a few days, so sign up this weekend for your chance to win BIG.

Don’t let overwhelm and stress take over. Our platform offers engaging content and a strong community so you can master complex anesthesia concepts and feel confident and supported.

Discover the future of pain management on this episode of Atomic Anesthesia as we explore a major breakthrough: the FDA approval of suzetrigine, a first-in-class, nonopioid pain medication. Guided by cutting-edge research and expert editorial insight from Anesthesiology, we dig into how suzetrigine works—targeting the NaV1.8 sodium channel in peripheral nerves—and what this means for patients and providers facing acute pain. You’ll hear about the pivotal NAVIGATE clinical trials, real-world patient experiences, and the medication’s advantages over traditional opioids, including fewer side effects and no risk of addiction. Whether you’re a healthcare professional, patient, or someone passionate about medical innovation, join us to learn how suzetrigine is poised to reshape pain relief and help bridge the gap left by the opioid crisis.

In this live webinar, we discuss pain pathways in extreme detail, which is a foundational topic for anyone in anesthesia or in the ICU. We explore the four stages of pain—transduction, transmission, modulation, and perception—breaking down complex neurophysiology into manageable segments. We also look at how acute pain transitions into chronic pain, covering nociceptive, neuropathic, and nociplastic pain, and explaining the key roles of nociceptors, ion channels, and neurotransmitters. Whether you're new to this topic or reviewing for boards, this session offers clear explanations of difficult material, including referred pain and the gate control theory. Stick around until the end to hear about groundbreaking therapies like NAV1.8 blockers and the future of non-opioid pain management that could transform how we treat acute and chronic pain.
