This is something I've wondered about since the start of my CA-1 year. One of the most frustrating parts of my daily routine was (and in some instances, continues to be) the fact that we are expected to curtail a thorough H + P, explanation of risk, benefits, etc. of anesthesia, etc. for the sake of time, while the surgeons/proceduralists may take their sweet time doing so. To cause of a delay would further incur punishment, almost universally, in both private practice and academics.
Yes, I understand that 'that's just the way it is'. But does anybody know why such rules were ever enacted in the first place? Or why it is frowned upon to cancel/delay a case that is legitimately unsafe?
