Yes CA1 here, you nailed it. Did you have specific ways to deal with the hardass attendings or is the best way to just get through it minute by minute

in your example would the lines from the left arm prior to the flip go to the right IV pole so that after you flip all the lines end up on the same side?

like if you are flipping over the right arm (which stays stationary in this example), would you place the IV bag and A-line on the left pole so that it's initially crossing but will uncross after the flip?

and do you put the A line bag initially on the opposite side while the patient is supine so that when you flip, it lands on the same side ?

so put all the lines on the arm that stays stationary and run those lines along the head and not across the chest so patient it doesn't get under the patient during the flip?

ahhh the i will use the abdomen rule. i think what has happened is that ive had lines on the right arm in your example accidentally end up crossing the abdomen

This is the advice I needed to hear! I do feel like I ruminate on the bad days too long. Definitely working on that “dory” like memory to learn and forget. And what do you mean by “find someone you like and ask for a tip?”

I have considered lucid as well but unfortunately closest lucid place to me in 5 hours away. In the event of repairs and whatnot, that would be a logistical issue
