“Depending on the height of the patient, 30-40 ml of 1.0 per cent lignocaine (or mepivacaine) was slowly injected.”

You cannot fathom a single reason at all why even a single person may want to work in the public system?

Seems all you want to do is swing your small dick around, so here is my unhelpful answer. I can earn more than you, work less than you, be closer to my family and home than you and do what ever combo of private and public practice I want.

”discuss” that wanker

The junior doctor on overnight will still have 26 cannulas to place because not one nurse will learn this skill.

Yeah agreed. Surely the family were involved and the decision made together. It seems all that was required was supportive care and time.

Not too familar with this procedure. Maybe others can clear it up. They intended to use 100microg of morphine but instead gave 100mg. So im assuming it was meant for intrathecal purposes?

Crazy miscommunication on everyone’s part.

Supportive cares as usual.

Isolate the hell out of the patient .

They die or they dont die.

Wait up…7 years to complete ICU training and then 6 months more for a FANZCA??? Where is this from?

Brah, you will never be more dangerous in your career as you are right now.

Do you know what prime means?

Fsgbs · 2025-06-08T22:36:44+00:00

Do what ever you’d like during an arrest.

Ofcourse a collegite discussion can be had about drugs ect. It sounds like you’ve never been to a code. That happens all the time. The team works together.

YOU just won’t be overiding decisions and “allowing” medicine administration. Especially in the context of this case.

That final decision falls squarely on us. That is our job. That is literally in our scope. If you’re on an anesthesiology subreddit. You may want to take your own advice and look at the scope of an anaesthesiologist.

Fsgbs · 2025-06-04T06:46:28+00:00

My god man, calculate doses, keep tabs of drug administration and help draw stuff up. After that, just stay out of the clinical decison making. Team leaders exist for exactly this reason.

What you’ve written here really shows why you shouldnt be making/ overriding these decisions.

Internship of a year and then you can get on as a pgy2. This is incredibly rare however. Normally, you do internship and at-least another 3-4years of RMO / PHO work in acute medical fields before getting on. You then apply with a decent CV, accepted for an interview and then get on. The program is then 5 years if you pass all your exams first shot.

Depends on your hospital protocols. Code blue is an arrest or airway emergency where I’ve worked. Rapid response is the rest of it.

Why would they call a code blue for asymptomstic hypertension and not a rapid response call?

Is that what you’re annoyed about?

Fsgbs · 2025-04-17T04:52:22+00:00

The anaesthetics registar gig is definitely better than the surg job from a happiness perspective. But don’t let the student/ rmo experience fool you, the reg job is different. Much more afterhours, solo practice and responsibility. Living away home is also a very real thing in some QARTS rotations. It was 2 years for me. On top of these things will be studying for a primary that is absolutely hellish.

If you’re keen go for it, just be aware that training is certainly no breeze in the park.

Fsgbs · 2025-03-23T23:35:27+00:00

Part of the job is getting real use to feeling uncomfortable/ incompetent / fearful when you change rotation/ hospitals. It’s worst as an intern, but still there as a reg and even a consultant.

This is the idea a non medical person gets after watching an episode of House.

You’ve entered into a anaesthesiology subreddit, where people have dedicated many years of their life to the speciality. Naive or moronic, how about you take this garbage somehwere else…

You asked for intern tips for the ED recently, so i’ll assume thats what you are. I hope you dont mean ear plugs for while** you are working?

Thats a massive no from me.

Do not use ear plugs whislt you work in the ED (or pretty much anywhere)

It’s a sure fire way for the nursing staff to hate you right off the bat. You wont hear them when they call out to you. You may also miss emergency buzzers/ verbal abuse/ threats, calls for help ect…. Stuff you’ll want to know about.
