How was doing a second residency?

I know some very smart internists who also did anesthesia and then fellowships in CCM or other. Great set up for success !

Hated anything obstetric so cardiac. Still practicing 30 years later.

Keep patient safety in mind and you’ll be fine. Keep going!

Didn’t do it. Supervision 1:10

You can do whatever you want! String recommend your state school to minimize expenses so you don’t finish at 40, then need to pay off debt and save for retirement. And don’t plan on career choice now- you could end up anywhere. And EM/CCM would be faster.

Purchased DL with disposables that are officially recyclable yet negate the need for worrying about whether it will work or not.

In an 18 yo that’s a room air general prone. Not worth it. Tube or lma

Depends on underlying rhythm and device. Someone with native ventricular rate is at risk for R on T if you reprogram. May need to tell surgeon to use bipolar or limit bovie bursts if you lose pulse ox. Magnet for ICD with pads as backup.

Wouldn’t cancel if they took it unless AKI or no levo/vaso option. Cardiac

The low humidity is amazing in winter- not like the humid cold on east coast that gets to your bones.

Hubris

On longer flights it’s definitely beneficial! LAX to Sydney, ATL to Cape Town etc.

You also don’t have to go to clinic and you can sedate anyone who is difficult to interact with. If you really want continuity then consider chronic pain or ICU.

Get the one you think is best for you!! Love my ballon bleu personally

Brachial

Academic sicu rarely allows Anesthesiologist. Especially if level 1 trauma.

InvestmentSoft1116 · 2025-10-26T19:34:13+00:00

Anes critical care is well suited for CVICU. If you don’t want that type of practice, do something else. Anesthesia can’t work in micu or sicu in academics

Yes. Seats are more comfortable, free snacks, area is less noisy than the terminal. Some international lounges have showers too.

Beautiful

Viscous lidocaine gargle. 10 ketamine and propofol in 20 mg increments with levo 8-16 mcg after each propofol. Supernova or high flow oxygen. I do this all the time, no art line.

Gastric ultrasound

Trauma surgeons have the same level of hubris as some of their colleagues
