วีดีโอ

I’m in CRNA school and found your video so helpful :)

You're so welcome!

The choice of the syringe size and volume of medication is user dependent. I typically draw up 50mcg/mL and total of 2ml. I could draw this up in a 3mL syringe instead.

Glad it was helpful!

More to come!

It depends on hospital policy and the setting for which the catheter has been placed (OB ward versus post-op pain management) There are lots of factors which dictate this. (Available resources to monitor it, patient comfort, adverse risks of infusing medication through it and risks to patients being able to start rehab or ambulate etc..) The easiest answer is, its removed once pain is reasonable controlled and the patient is tolerating oral pain medicine or no medicine at all.

Thanks for the feedback!

NOW* get injections with just Nitrous & fentanyl

Thank you for sharing and I am sorry you had to go through this. The effects of versed can vary and there is a risk that the patient will move during a procedure. Some patients will have amnesia from versed alone. You clearly did not. Some pain proceduralists are now using anesthesia providers to administer propofol. The level of anesthesia is considered "general" and not "sedation" such as what you received.

Thanks for liking

Glad you liked it!

On routine cases I would maintain the BIS score 40-60. Lower than 40 is often unnecessary and compounds the unwanted side effects of anesthesia (hemodynamic instability). There are other anesthesia adjuncts which are better suited for outcomes such as hypertension or patient movement. (anti-hypertensives if you are sure its not pain related and muscle relaxants for movement)

Thank you! Is sedline range the same 40-60 as bis? Thx again!

Great to hear! I hope you enter the field. I really love what I do and find every day exciting.

I would say its not offensive. Unfortunately people will have their opinions. There were many civilians in NYC at the height of covid wearing these masks. They are very effective and more comfortable than the normal N-95 if worn correctly and with the proper filter. Having a safe/approved vaccine is probably the best option since wearing a mask is not always done correctly and the mask eventually needs to be cleaned and the filter replaced. Hope this helps.

So excited to hear. I'll work on more material. Congrats on joining our anesthesia community!

@@calincalabrese6260 Calin, Quick update. They offered me the position, so I start three months of training next month. Your videos really helped me prepare for the interviews and also got me excited about exploring a career in anesthesiology. Thank you again for posting these. I know they require a lot of effort, but please know they are extremely helpful and appreciated. Thank you again!

Yes you can! As with anything make sure you try it out first at a slower pace. The benefit of these masks is their increase in surface area which means easier flows when exercising. Only draw back is you might get looks. Remember after awhile the filters do go bad and typically that shows up as an increase in difficulty breathing with them on. So have some spares handy and switch them out when necessary

there are 3d printed filter housing for these 3M half face masks. you can cut out surgical mask/electrostatic hepa sheet as filter

Hungryalien great idea do you have a link?. You can also place velcro on the 3m mask at the exhalation port and the exhalation mask. T

@@calincalabrese6260 hi you can google for "3d printed respirator exhalation valve filter" there might be sellers near you. some even post the raw files online so you can print it out yourself if you have access to 3d printer. i got my 6200/7500 all fitted with those from a local seller here in asia.

@@calincalabrese6260 for reference and what can be done. you can check out this guy's instagram: instagram.com/3dprintmanila/

Thanks! Just seeing this now and getting used to making TH-cam videos. Will work on induction videos for the future. Probably can't be real patients because of HIPPA and hospital policy.

When I was working COVID19 patients I would wash the mask (without filters) routinely and have spares to switch out while others dried

Full if you dont have protective glasses. I also noticed that you get better seal and fit with the fullmask

I am not a pro just did my research during the pandemic, what i learned is its ok as long as you dont use the filter if it gets vet from disinfectant, let it dry out. Damp filters seems to be huge issie from what i read

sorry for spelling...typing on phone lol

Alcohol prep pads work the best. (No science behind this, it is my opinion) It dries quickly and is not toxic like the cavi-wipes

I would wipe the filter at the end of the day or intermittently with an alcohol pad. It didnt over dampen the filter. Then I left it in a brown bag or out to dry

@@calincalabrese6260 alcohol is super bad for the filter if it touches the filter material at all, you should consider replacing them quickly. Your filters are made of melt-blown (MB) stretched polypropylene that use electrostatic charges to pull dust and virus particles in and stick to the filter. Alcohol rapidly degrades MB polypropylenes charges. Here is a scientific paper which was published this year in journal Applied Nano Materials, where they tested cleaning your filter material with ethanol (alcohol). This is a quote from their findings in the study: “We found that the filtration efficiency of MB filter significantly dropped to ∼84% and ∼62% after ethanol spraying with 1 cycle and 10 cycles.” Fortunately ebay and amazon still have the 7093 and 7093c cartridges for under $25. :) www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7323055/#!po=0.877193.

they usally dont come with filters, try get the pp3 filters instead of pp2 or n95 if you can, its great set up

3M 6800 series

m3 6000 series
