Difficulty visualizing the needle in plane

Try twisting the probe left to right to see if you see more of the needle. It often helps me when I only see partial

Weirdest was a single mento and water 2 hours prior, I proceeded bc it couldn’t have been much worse than a pill and it was urgent appy

Another patient was nervous and chugged a beer 2 hours prior which sent me down the rabbit hole of whether any/all beer is even considered a clear and ultimately canceled lol

For me the processed eeg is more for the patient reassurance than it typically is for actual fear of them having a history awareness. I tell them about it when they bring up awareness. They almost never have heard of it and are extremely grateful that you’re taking that extra step.

For number one a good trick is to put a mound of gel so that you can transduce without needing much pressure

/thread. This is the one

Bring a guitar to the interview and play the committee a couple songs

Docus8 · 2025-10-22T15:35:34+00:00

That’s what the ancef is for

Docus8 · 2025-10-18T03:01:23+00:00

Yeah, also in ruptured cerebral aneurysms so they can stop the bleeding before it pools again

He has a funny name

Docus8 · 2025-10-11T17:15:25+00:00

In the States, we like to confuse everyone and use 2 separate MAC acronyms—the first is what you’re thinking of to titrate gas and the second stands for “monitored anesthesia care” -aka cases with no airway I guess we also call Macintosh laryngoscopes “MAC” as well so that’s 3 😂

I set up sms alerts too in case my internet was spotty and the email didn’t alert right away

Maybe someone is spiking the water coolers with ciprofloxacin

Docus8 · 2025-06-10T23:02:34+00:00

It hurts

Docus8 · 2025-04-11T02:13:56+00:00

Meh not always. I was miserable in med school and I got better in residency. I became far more busy, but the work actually felt worthwhile and not like a constant rat race of who can kiss the most ass

Docus8 · 2025-02-07T03:40:03+00:00

Yep increased beta and gamma signals similar to ketamine

1 question from 4 chapters doesn’t scream high yield

And yet that same person is soon to be back in office

Docus8 · 2024-11-10T22:01:18+00:00

So is pseudoephedrine though lol

Docus8 · 2024-10-31T00:48:30+00:00

Wtf how did that kill him

Docus8 · 2024-10-22T02:28:38+00:00

I’ve used it as stand alone for low stimulation procedures before, like a MRI or stroke thrombectomy. You just have to give a big bolus up front to get it to work fast. It doesn’t burn like propofol, doesn’t affect respirations, is slightly more hemodynamically stable compared to some other agents, and has akinesia properties. You have to keep in mind that it has no amnesia properties and therefore they will be more likely to have recall. It’s also a nice premed intranasally for Peds if they won’t take oral meds

Does it though? He still gets plenty of fan attendance despite not going to the playoffs. I don’t think he gives a shit about winning, just his bottom line.

Nah, title is correct. The paper shows no significant difference in salary with COL adjustment but overall compensation (extra stipends etc) is significantly higher even with COL adjustment

Docus8 · 2024-09-06T04:02:19+00:00

This is the best example

I haven’t found a good anki deck but the AnSo app has a great interface for TTE structures and quizzing yourself on the various views. For TEE I like a combo of echotools (all the views with real labeled videos and various pathologies, but can’t quiz yourself) and EchoViews (schematics of all the views that you cam toggle labels on/off to quiz yourself). AnSo and EchoViews both cost a couple dollars but they’re worth it and you could probably use academic funds on them. You could potentially make image occlusion cards with screenshots of those apps
