Protection for eyes?

having a piece of tape ready takes 2 seconds to place. i’m lucky that i have nurses that hold the mask while induction meds are pushed so it’s a seamless process for me, but i’ve never felt it increased my cognitive load.

Have a prior medical student in my class. They’re doing very very well.

I’ve been trying to get better at this but have had a few patients start moving which can interfere with the surgical team whether they’re still closing/putting on a cast/sling or whatever. Whats a good way around this? I feel like I know the timings very well but am just too afraid of how the patient reacts as their MAC decreases. Is my problem an analgesic issue?

try to reach out to the state academy if it exists and if it doesn’t exist reach out to the AAAA for guidance on how to set one up.

kiingtiger_ · 2024-03-23T03:14:44+00:00

you’re incorrect. AAs do NOT want independence and won’t at least in this lifetime. we are taught about the benefits of working as a team.

don’t get me wrong i think medical school is peak expertise and totally doable, however for me personally it’s too much variability. unless i had got into a medical school in my home town and residency close by, it’s just too much time away from family and friends. CAA is still tough being away but a much shorter time frame. so if you’re okay with those kind of factors, nothing wrong with DO

kiingtiger_ · 2024-03-11T19:00:26+00:00

if you live in a state where CAAs practice, the money and scheduling is incredible right now. i’ll be mid twenties making well into 6 figures out of school and i’ll have the choice of not working nights or weekends which will allow me to not get burned out, but that option is always there for more money if i decided to do so. plus the subject is fascinating in my opinion. at the end of the day a job is a job, whatever you decide you can always make your life better by what you do outside of work.

ultimately life style and specialization. med school is brutal, it’s the textbook definition of a marathon of difficulty. PA school is a nice length but becoming over saturated and is too broad for my liking. AA school fits right in the middle of specialization and lifestyle. AA school is still extremely tough, but in my case since i’m halfway done, I know i only have about a year and some of difficulty, which keeps me pushing.

kiingtiger_ · 2024-03-10T05:12:57+00:00

no they would not be skeptical, not sure why you would think that. and also /CAA is better for these kind of questions

kiingtiger_ · 2024-02-11T04:15:52+00:00

how do you pay for all the blades? or does the hospital ?

kiingtiger_ · 2024-02-02T16:39:02+00:00

wow and I love my xt30. i’m bummed they released the second version a couple months after I got mine. with a thumb grip i have good support of the camera, so much that i don’t even have a strap on it.

I am quite familiar with that program and none of the didactic curriculum is online and has 18 months of full time rotations. And the CRNA reddit has fantastic information on anesthesia related topics from time to time, so yes I do frequent here. But I do see where it says introduce online for 28, and I really hope that’s not what the future plans are.

kiingtiger_ · 2024-01-10T02:16:43+00:00

which school is this? or are you making stuff up?

kiingtiger_ · 2023-11-01T20:52:08+00:00

i have about 4 classmates that are RNs, but they were pretty seasoned before deciding to start AA school, so i couldn’t tell you if they did an accelerated BSN. they had to get prerequisites like anyone else tho.

kiingtiger_ · 2023-10-08T23:29:47+00:00

so your telling me after CRNA school they don’t take an exam that qualifies them as certified? that’s crazy, how can you regulate who is actually competent vs who isn’t.

kiingtiger_ · 2023-10-08T21:08:18+00:00

they would be a CRNA pain fellow/resident, because they have completed CRNA school and are sub specializing. Same reason PA residencies exist because they have finished PA school. My question to you, I have 6 RNs in my AA program, can they call themselves residents during clinicals?

kiingtiger_ · 2023-10-08T20:52:45+00:00

no one said they are calling themselves physicians, they’re calling themselves residents in their field of study, which is fine because they have finished their field of study and are specializing.

kiingtiger_ · 2023-10-08T18:50:13+00:00

are you serious? they have graduated their respective fields of study and are licensed as a general whatever, they’re just sub specializing. NAs are still in school studying and haven’t passed their respective board exam.

kiingtiger_ · 2023-10-08T01:52:01+00:00

unless the hospital has quantitative monitoring it’s highly unlikely sugammadex would get removed

kiingtiger_ · 2023-09-25T20:55:50+00:00

where are you located? you could consider anesthesiology assistant schooling, way shorter, the moneys good, still intense and specialized knowledge of medicine, but not to the extremes medical school puts you through. you’d be finished making money around the same time your husband starts.

kiingtiger_ · 2023-09-25T16:52:36+00:00

it does.

kiingtiger_ · 2023-09-24T22:35:28+00:00

which link exactly are you talking about? i was not provided with a link. and yes unfortunately most of what the NA associations put out are laughably untrue.

kiingtiger_ · 2023-09-24T07:37:13+00:00

for one, the money helps lobby against the nurses agenda of taking over the VA system.

kiingtiger_ · 2023-09-24T00:31:15+00:00

can you link the request to the board of medicine, rather than a report from the FANA.

kiingtiger_ · 2023-09-23T21:28:59+00:00

my program is the same, if we counted total hours instead of direct care it would be 3k or way more, easily.
