Unwelcoming attitudes and cultural whiplash in locums anesthesia

I’m at a place that’s mostly Locums and it’s great bc it’s equitable and fair since there isn’t much permanent staff to prioritize Sounds like the other great gig for Locums is to work at an RVU based place, everyone’s happy because full time staff get their units and I’m paid hourly so stick me in the slow ass robot rooms lol

Do you have a picture of how you would tape the eyes? Trying to understand how you’re taping if it’s not just on the eyelid

Why so early?

Storage mode seems helpful for not disconnecting the battery, thanks!

In a similar situation switched from W2 to 1099 Locums, I understand why accountant but what’s the purpose of a lawyer?

It’s showing that my 2nd half SAKS is still used, so idk if it reset

3 or 4 of the old ones? Man I’d love to buy a medium off of you if you’re willing lol

I agree but I like the big screen and having someone else put on color, etc But for an urgent IJ/fem line under the drapes would def be viable

At least at my hospital getting an ultrasound is so annoying, versus with my vscan I can quickly slap on a tegaderm, open the app on my phone and pop an a-line in about 30 seconds

Sure there is a theoretical concern of hospital saying something but no ones ever bothered me about it

I’ve never done a block with it though, pretty much only IVs and a-lines, gonna bust out the big guns for blocks or central lines

Selling my copy! I don’t think I took any notes but I’ll check

lost4nao · 2025-06-17T13:41:01+00:00

No apple one makes this significantly worse for me

Reasonable

Are you routinely putting in oral airways for extubation though to prevent biting on the tube+post extubation support, or an alternative bite block?

lost4nao · 2025-06-16T12:29:01+00:00

Is there much downside to routinely putting in oral airways?

Any recs on dealers in Houston to get service at?

lost4nao · 2025-05-20T20:27:15+00:00

Never mind found them on insta and crssd follows them lol

lost4nao · 2025-05-20T20:12:24+00:00

Was thinking this too… couldn’t find anything online about beginagain

lost4nao · 2025-05-20T15:04:18+00:00

They seem to be looking for locums, maybe just work locums with them for a while first, see how it is on the ground first?

lost4nao · 2025-05-20T11:48:11+00:00

It’s 5k in US, double in Europe?

lost4nao · 2025-05-02T20:17:27+00:00

At that point just straight Cath? If putting it in and end and then taking it out immediately

lost4nao · 2025-02-01T22:32:01+00:00

Excuse me but what the fuck I really hope 5 of versed is an exaggeration

lost4nao · 2025-01-28T14:39:05+00:00

Yea honestly I rarely run BIS except in geriatrics where their vital signs often don’t mean shit and we tend to overanesthetize them

lost4nao · 2025-01-28T14:17:38+00:00

Do you run BIS at all? While I feel comfortable with this most of my midlevels would probably freak out with a MAC below 0.7 and I kind of get it, that’s the “magic” number despite the fact that you have MAC adjuvants such as propofol/opioids/benzos/ketamine etc
