The scientific method - I do listen to my anaesthetists when they give handover, and when they explain their rationales, I absorb it - I love in-depth explanations. And we have been known to change practice in how we recover patients accordingly.
We used to pre-medicate (routinely!) any patient about to receive Tramadol IV via pain protocol (as an adjunct to some narcotic pain protocol) Metaclopramide 10 - 20mg, until listening to a relatively exhaustive explanation by one of our more clued-up registrars about the slight but significant chance of Seratonin syndrome using those two together changed our approach. That registrar felt that it was best to wait to see how the patient tolerated the Tramadol and give one of the -trons instead of Maxalon if the patient needed it.
Sage advice.
It boils down to best practice.
