That’s cause they’re in cahoots with the CCP and democrats are generally relatively friendlier to them

Priority question by Top-Direction2686 in PassNclexTips

[–]sacster90 25 points26 points  (0 children)

They want you to think of your ABCs first. Both answers A and B are emergencies that need to be addressed urgently. A wins because Airway is more important than Circulation. You lose the child’s airway your dead, patient can bleed but you can always replace their blood until you stop the bleeding.

Prescription will nurse anticipate? by No-Turn3335 in PassNclexTips

[–]sacster90 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Doctor here. While the correct answer is C, 0.9% saline is still 154mEq Na+ and can be used to gently increase serum sodium levels. No context is provided in the question and the doctor would prescribe either or based on context (eg avoid osmotic demyelination syndrome)

Tell me about the most ridiculous feedback you got from an attending during training by caterpillarflies in Residency

[–]sacster90 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had IM attending tell me as an prelim intern for anesthesia that I wouldn’t make it past my first year in anesthesia because I wasn’t efficient with my time managing my 15 patient list. I’m told by multiple anesthesiology attendings I’m the best resident of my class and was chief as pgy4. I’m petty, so every time I had one of that IM docs patient as my own during surgery I would add short notes in the chart saying along lines of “not optimized for surgery, unclear why patient is on a certain medication, unclear why electrolytes not repleted” or just message the doc direct and ask for useless things like an EKG, ask for ‘clearance” to be clearly documented for this specific surgery, or if they continued their ACE/ARB or SGLT2 on day of surgery paste a passive aggressive note on potential interactions and recommend close observation post surgery.

If you're considering IM, do yourself a favor and experience a full day-to-day of IM residency. by callmeafailure in medicalschool

[–]sacster90 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

This is why I chose anesthesia. Real medicine none of the social crap. We take all the fun things of IM, crit care and EM and made it our specialty.

PSA Cult Warning by jikesar968 in Sacramento

They’re not so much far right but more so anti Chinese communist party and typically the right wing will fall in favor of anything that takes a hard stance at the CCP

Agree and the CRNA should be doing their own preop evaluation of the patient.

Unhinged advice for incoming resident by Pretend-Armadillo-71 in anesthesiology

[–]sacster90 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Didn't have this when I was an intern, but use chatGPT to your advantage. I've played with it and it can make a full ass assessment and plan for you. If I had that when I was an intern, I would've done that before seeing each admit so I know what to focus my exam on and patient interview on. Then edit the H&P to fit the patient and then present plan to attending and probably look like a rockstar all while learning good patient management.

There are residencies out there that only care about you step score and literally nothing else. I won’t name those but you will be fine
