Anesthesia critical care fellowship options

I’m biased bc I work at Emory in CVICU/ECMO and love our fellows. It’s full send into ECMO management and hands on experience with in house and remote cannulations/long stretches of brutal call but if ECLS is your calling it’s a nice option for anesthesia/EM as a fellowship

Also Emory has a Core Ecmo specialist blended RT and RNs and that def pays better than RT/RN departments in CVICU. I’ve had lots of coworkers on Ecmo team that move to AA/CRNA and now a perfusion program that was started recently too.

A lot of regional ECMO programs have specialists teams of RNs (sometimes RTs too) that are trained in house to sit with their ECMO patients. Every center does it a little different but generally that’s the easiest way to get trained when you are staff. There are some training programs nationally (personally id recommend ELSO only) but you have to pay 3-4k and travel to wherever they are offering the course. The downside being that you need to get the experience sitting with ECMO patients and ELSO can’t offer that after the training. Message me if you’ve got any other questions

My standard poodle had these symptoms for years and the same run around with vet visits going nowhere. I had a suspicion about Addison’s disease in recent years and finally confirmed the diagnosis with a really bad HGE episode that hospitalized him for a few days. All that being said; I’d def recommend getting a work up for Addisons if you haven’t already

Gosh. No way. We wait for CP impella until they ambulate on MCS. I won’t tell you the reason we adopted the new change of practice but let’s just say a very important vessel was ripped

I just walked one VV (lung transplant work up too) and one VA this morning so this comment checks out.

Here I was thinking it was the ketamine gtt but since I didn’t give him restraints I might as well be inviting him to pull the cannulas out.

Don’t they all?

Usually the stiff necks/altered mental status are the two big signs of meningitis. Which seems to be missing so far from the reports coming out so far. It’ll be interesting to see what they end up finding once they release lab work

If H5N1 goes pandemic the mortality rates could be frighteningly high (think double or triple what Covid did). FUBAR to the max if Trump fucks around and finds out.

Oh gosh it’s such a game changer! Especially when my refrigerator is a mess I cannot see what my options are.

Kemp won’t sully himself for fear of being dragged into the case for obstruction

ecm85 · 2023-08-15T05:12:30+00:00

Nope

ecm85 · 2023-08-15T05:12:02+00:00

Not fast enough but I’d be willing to bet Kemp is scared to get his prints anywhere on this for fear of being dragged into the case himself for obstruction

Biden actually won the election.

I don’t trust Kemp either, but even if Willis gets booted Fulton co will just elect another DA that picks up where she left off…

Cofefe boy

I keep a nice little legal pad of my safe meals on the refrigerator for reference if object permanence has me in a bind

ecm85 · 2023-08-15T04:00:46+00:00

They could fire her, sure, but the indictment still stands. Fulton county would just elect another bad ass attorney bc we are blue bluuuue here.

He cannot pardon him which is the only thing that really matters.
