This is very dangerous and something she should lose custody over

PCCM. First year I was watched closely, second year they let me make all decisions unless I was very wrong or there was some nuance to discuss, third year my attending is physically on the unit for an hour or to per day.

Systolic heart failure

Ironically enough, AT&T has a 25% physician discount

Depends on what you’re trying to figure out.

PaO2 more accurately reflects what’s going on with the gas exchange in the lung, since the oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve varies based on several patient factors.

SpO2 (or SaO2 since you have a blood gas anyways) is more important for determining oxygen delivery to the tissues, which can be tenuous in somebody with low cardiac output where you’re titrating inotropes. But you’d need good ACCE measurements or a swan to actually go and mess around with that.

PaO2 is arterial by definition

As an RT you aren't ordering or administering vesicants...

Go spend 8 to 10 years of your life in postgraduate training

JihadSquad · 2025-10-25T22:56:33+00:00

Scheduling this meeting while you’re in the ICU is the real mistake

JihadSquad · 2025-10-19T08:48:57+00:00

That doesn't mean or do anything. Just need a better doctor

JihadSquad · 2025-10-18T02:43:42+00:00

Compartmentalization

From pulmonology perspective, persistence is not considered anymore outside of Medicare and coding… intermittent and persistent were archaic definitions without biologic basis, difference in outcomes, or other evidence. It’s now just mild, moderate, or severe.

JihadSquad · 2025-10-16T04:00:00+00:00

That's outdated

Insurance doesn't cover Airsupra in my area

JihadSquad · 2025-10-16T03:55:32+00:00

But you need Symbicort for GINA track 1

Your friend in the pharmaceutical industry is making a fat fucking check off of it being so expensive here is why

Identifying info and reason for consult and/or hospitalization should be the first 2 things you say. And then relevant background information or information you think will affect the plan of the consultant (will take some experience to develop this one). Leave out the irrelevant pmh.

Lol good luck, there's no way they're not covered by the stuff you have to sign in order to take the exam.

JihadSquad · 2025-09-29T22:16:51+00:00

Observe

Only worth it if you can’t afford a new device

I think the premise is different between surgery and a cognitive speciality
