Nurse anesthetist - Definition and Overview

A nurse anesthetist (AE) is a Nurse trained to administer anesthesia.

Training varies depending on the country. In the United States, for example, training is overseen by the American Association of Nurse Anesthetists.

In the U.S., nurse anesthetists complete nursing school, and then take between one and three years of additional training. They are certified by the Council on Certification of Nurse Anesthetists (CCNA).
