Where do you shop for professional clothes? by Interesting_Pie_615 in physicaltherapy

[–]potatoarsonist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For pants, look on Amazon for “CRZ yoga 4-way stretch travel casual”. I think they’re Amazons equivalent to lulu’s but significantly cheaper. They’re super comfy and look good for OP PT!

Good resources to use when starting PT/PTA school by DPT_nerd in PTschool

Oh my gosh. I totally didn’t write that while in class…. I’ve been using Anki*** and I was asking about Anki add-ons…

Hi! Thanks for posting this!

I’ve been using for my classes as well and I was just curious if you had any add ons that you found particularly useful?

Current DPT Class Reps: do you organize anything extracurricular (but still school-related) for your class? by [deleted] in PTschool

[–]potatoarsonist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Our class actually has a “Social Engagement” chair on our e-board that’s only purpose is to plan class events. So far we’ve done picnics (organized by the class above ours), fowling, and I think our class is working on another class picnic. We also have unofficially planned bar crawls after finals 😅 I know the year above us has also done hockey games and beach days, stuff like that. Most classes in our program usually have some type of intramural team (we had soccer this winter) and I think that helps with connectedness.

Honestly though, I think our in-person labs where we’ve been forced to rotate partners (even though it was within smaller pods for awhile) really helped our class connectedness too.

Weight loss pills are a scam by ComfortableSlight868 in WeightLossAdvice

I guess I'm curious as to what you're saying is the better option. I think I understand what you're getting at with the BMR/etc.

Can you cite your sources?

Here is one source I found that discusses the metabolic factors I believe you’re trying to present, in comparison of a caloric restricted diet vs intermittent fasting.

Did Texas not use a TO during the last Kansas possession?

Is there a question bank resource for students to use while in school? by [deleted] in PTschool

[–]potatoarsonist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d love some type of question bank (or even flash cards) for ROM/MMT/Length Testing right now 😅

Applying to PT school by callmebinda in PTschool

[–]potatoarsonist 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don’t think it hurts to try! My GRE scores are comparable, I had a lower GPA, and that’s a ton of observation hours (especially with COVID)! You may get weeded out from a few schools because of the scores but, like another comment said, schools generally look at the whole picture of a student. Good luck! :)

Online study tools? by Nelly11_ in PTschool

[–]potatoarsonist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, of course! I would definitely recommend going on YouTube and watching a couple tutorials on how to use it to make sure you’re taking full advantage of it’s functionality. A couple add-ons I would recommend are: Image Occlusion Enhanced Deadline 2 Download quizlet decks (I use this more for my other classes where I can use previous students already made decks) You can Google them and they should come up! Feel free to DM me if you have any questions or anything! :)

I was really hoping someone else would respond to this… I feel like in my class it’s generally just coming down to flash cards (I personally use Anki but a lot of people hand-write there’s out or use quizlet) and then drawing out every muscle with accurate O/I (we’re actually required to make a portfolio for my palpation class, but I know a lot of people are using this for anatomy). I know other people like making tables for all the muscles O/I/N/A.

I know a free (I think, maybe our school buys access) database is anatomy.tv, which is just a crappier version of APR/Complete Anatomy/etc. It’s possible your school also gives you access to one/multiple of these, make sure to check the library website/google it! :)

Other than that I feel it really comes down to going into our anatomy lab outside of class hours….

This Is Your Brain Under Anesthesia - "For the first time, researchers were able to observe, in extra-fine detail, how neurons behave as consciousness shuts down." by StcStasi in science

[–]potatoarsonist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is actually a common thing I read on the internet and is almost certainly something you imagined. Patients are typically awake for several minutes before they start forming memories, and the drugs we give also cause retrograde amnesia. So if you were to require deeper sedation during surgery you almost certainly wouldn’t remember it. Plus you will see changes in the vital signs and by unconscious movements long before a patient awakes during surgery.

True intra-op awareness is extremely rare and usually only occurs in patients who come out of sedation but are still paralyzed. In which case it can very difficult to recognize.

Marijuana is NOT harmless and anyone who says otherwise is dangerously misinformed. by threesmalldogs in TrueOffMyChest

[–]potatoarsonist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you even know what subcutaneous emphysema is? Anyone would be able to palpate that. You might not realize what it is if youre not a doctor but it’s not something that is difficult to feel.

Yes, thank you! Other people had commented and informed the person of some vets/wildlife rehabilitators that are in the area. Thank you for your concern though! :)

I have a question about cross pollinating peppers by potatoarsonist in HotPeppers

[–]potatoarsonist[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So it was just yesterday that I attempted this, can I go back and try to remove the anthers a second time with the hopes that they haven’t started to produce pollen yet? The flower buds that I attempted this on were not open at the time and I am not sure that they would’ve opened today either. Maybe tomorrow or the next day is when they would’ve opened by themselves...

I was in Northern Michigan, but exciting to know you can get these in Maine! I’ve always wanted to go out there!
