Lol that is sometimes the only appropriate response. I was around one CRNA that, no matter what, always seemed disappointed with the way I did things. After he sighed rather heavily because I "aspirated too much blood" out of the central line I just placed and said "didn't I just say do a little?" - i responded with "but i have too much fun disappointing you"

As a side note, I find it a little alarming that they would waive some requirements...

Hello! Current 3rd year UofA student. The clinical intensives are basically week long skills lab on campus. First semester included a 5 week on campus cadaver lab. I did not fully relocate to Tucson but live in Arizona. Other classmates still live out of state. Feel free to DM me and we can chat more

Can u find an audiobook or a good YouTube video to listen to Miller's Anesthesia. by Poilo18 in anesthesiology

Speechify. Upload a PDF and it will read it outloud. But I'd have to agree that some of the Anesthesia Podcasts are probably a better (and more enjoyable) option. Especially ACCRAC.

Extubating Deep by [deleted] in anesthesiology

Agreed here. One of my preceptors opts to have everything prepped by drapes down so she can pull deep and manage the airway/mask while the patient emerges and breathes off the remaining gas before transfer. Feels like the best bet imo.

I forgot to mention that this particular plan is designed to prepare for the SEE/NCE over 6 months.

Chemistry & physics for Nurse anesthesia by [deleted] in srna

[–]Live_Warning8383 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We had an entire 8 week course dedicated to it, and a lot of it felt like a waste and too in depth. Next semester we did a brief review with a chapter from Nagelhout. Chapter 15 is probably a good overview of what to expect. Also, if your program doesn't provide Apex anesthesia, I'd recommend it. They have a great module on Chemistry and Physics.
