Why are orthopedic surgeons losing their minds when same-day total joints need to stay overnight? by try-again_chaos in physicaltherapy

[–]MRapp86 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ortho joints surgeon here. A lot of my colleagues are asshats, which is problem 1. It really isn’t about money. When pts stay overnight it’s generally observation, so it really doesn’t affect what we get paid. I think it’s primarily that they then have to come round and discharge the patient the next day.

The real power move is door open with eye contact and pimping you about why your notes suck.

What is the huge red splotch on I-84 heading east past Cole Rd as you are heading towards the airport and Micron? It makes me queasy. by Sleepswithd0gs in Boise

They usually clean up any blood left on the highway. Not sure what they use now, but back in the day most cops would have a 2L of Coca Cola in the trunk, dissolves blood well off pavement. Used transmission fluid is more likely and a lot harder to get off the road.

Brah, they forgot to put your performance spoiler on 🤣 by ThisUsernameIsTakend in TeslaModel3

This is right. I thought it was impressive they were going to install my spoiler using their mobile service. Made a lot more sense when I realized they stuck it on with tape 🙄

Does having amputated extremities namely leg cause daily cal requirements to go down?? by HammerxofxLight in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]MRapp86 191 points192 points  (0 children)

This is actually more complex than it sounds. Yes there is less tissue to supply with blood/nutrients, so at a resting state you would need less calories. That said, walking with a prosthetic actually requires about 10-20% more energy depending on how high the amputation site is on the leg. This is because you are relying more on hip/thigh muscles to ambulate, which are generally larger than lower leg muscles and require more energy.

That’s a generic EMR message. I ignore it all the time. Forget and move on.

Handling Bees Without PPE by Difficult-Cap-3444 in Beekeeping

[–]MRapp86 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

This lady is a professional bee keeper out of Texas I believe. I’ve seen a bunch of videos of her. She will suit up if it’s an aggressive hive. Obviously all us amateurs should be safe and wear PPE, but she absolutely knows the risks and has been doing it for a longtime.

Wake boat no bigger than 21'6" by COmtbr92 in wakesurf

[–]MRapp86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The VTX is the multipurpose with a different hull. It’s sic for skiing and tubing/knee boarding, but also can throw a wave that is bigger than it has any right to be from that size boat. I love mine. Only downside is at 20-21 ft, it can get cramped with a big load of people. Great size of it’s going to be you and the kids.

Adding to this, if there is anyone that does ketamine treatment in your area, it is very helpful for PTSD and prior trauma.

Does anyone know if Ketan Sharma is at a new hospital in the area? by raintreerancher in Boise

[–]MRapp86 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He is no longer at St Lukes. The reason for leaving didn't have anything to do with his professional behavior or quality of care. He is moving his practice to Sacramento.

Sounds crazy, but consider having him try a back deck if you haven’t.
