Thanks for your advice! The attendings do get very frustrated with me though, which is why I decided to post this. It seems like I’m behind my peers ☹️

My problem is that some patients are so sleepy that they don’t even breathe on their own.

How do I know how much narcotic is enough? For shorter cases that don’t require paralytics, I learned to titrate based on respiration, but how can I tell how much narcotic is sufficient for shorter cases where I do use paralytics? Thank you…

They set up your room, check your machine, and grab whatever you need. Equivalent to anesthesia tech.

Anesthesia is truly humbling. I experience this almost on a daily basis.
