You are right, what matters is actually the concentration in the brain but for simplicity we assume that the alveolar concentration does actually reflect the blood concentration and the brain concentration: Quote: Originally Posted by Planktonmd The equilibrium between alveoli and inspired gases is an indirect predictor of the equilibrium between brain and blood.

Anesthesiology and EGO
Published (2009-11-24 06:03:00)
I've met plenty of anesthesiologists that have a healthy self-esteem and are very confident individuals. You can also be agressive in your attitude towards work. But, IMO, one needs to remember that anesthesiology is a facilitator of surgery, and not the other way around. That's the way I look at it anyway. cf

This is temporary and will all get straightened out as soon as they figure out where Conrad Murray stashed it all away.

How much trouble am I really in?
Published (2009-11-22 13:10:00)
yeah my plan B for now is to do either a prelim year in medicine or Transitional year. I have plenty of those interviews and i'll rank them based on having an anesthesia program at the hospital or allowing me to do the most outside electives. Also i am interested in Critical Care so I might rank prelim medicine programs higher than TY and then reapply to ansethesia the second time around and then if that fails, try to find a pgy2 IM spot...

Anesthesiology is NOT a lifestyle specialty. Please do not go into it for that reason--we need dedicated physicians in anesthesia who will manage many critically ill patients concurrently using mid levels--that is the job of the future--what that will pay? I have no idea. The key thing to remember is that if there is only one buyer for a service (eg single payer) they can set the price---so ...

My first 3 years out of residency I would bolus through the Touhy needle using 15-20cc of 1.25% Bupiv with 50-100 mcg Fentanyl. I was also doing pain management back then and we always bolused through the needle since we rarely threaded a catheter. Back then I thought the CSE could increase the risk of PDPH's. I had crna's in-house as well so I didn't need to stick around to watch the pt so ...

Judging by your forum handle I'm guessing you're somehow associated with the military which should open up some possibilities for you, possibly some discounts too. I'm a big fan of Noveske parts if you can swing those, but it depends on what kind of AR you want to build. Any upper from this page would probably make you happy.

correct. that's also what i've been taught. you could visualize the cords from an inch away with a fiberoptic device and also have a " grade 1 view," but it's incorrect to record it as such.

Great questions:
The relationship between the speed of induction and cardiac output:
You are partially right, increasing cardiac output increases uptake from the alveoli to the arterial blood but the higher the the uptake from the alveoli the longer it will take to reach equilibrium between the alveoli and the inspired vapor (FA/FI), this equilibrium between alveoli and inspired gases is what...
