Propfol remains in VERY SHORT SUPPLY and we are only getting a very limited amount of the product, especially the 100 mL bottles. Please encourage the use of the lowest effective dose and recommend discontinuation as soon as not absolutely needed. We are seeing record vent use across the system and it is likely that this shortage will continue into the new year.
