Sorry- I'm still a little giddy :)
Today's cases were incredible learning experiences: 3 prone cases for back procedures- 2 Monitored Anesthesia Care (MAC) cases (got to see Ketamine and Breviblock in action... definitely adding those to my arsenal) and 1 General Anesthetic. I also jumped into charting a little bit and got more comfortable with drawing up and reconstituting the drugs we use.
Did I mention that I intubated my first patient on my first attempt?
Just checking.
Quick recap-
Yesterday's goals: Answer at least one question correctly- check
Don't drop anything- check
Don't cry- check
Today's goal: see first sentence of this post (not sure how you could miss it)- uh, check!
Tomorrow's goal: successfully utilizing my new anesthesia-care-provider-only IV insertion tool- the Lidocaine Wheal- prior to successfully starting my first IV in over a year... we'll see...
YAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYY!!!! Proud of you :)
