    You ALMOST have to be obsessive. I’ve learned to run towards the things I feared the most and immersed myself in every aspect of the situation. I’ve never regretted it.

    I was always made fun of as a kid for loving arts and crafts and making lanyards. Ha! Jokes on them, i'll be your surgeon now.

    Shaky hands tip from someone who's not a surgeon: If you can't rest your hands to stabilize, try barely touching something with your pinky finger. When I'm cutting glass to a pattern, sewing, welding, soldering, drawing or any other precision, freehand task where I can't rest my hands, just touching something with or slightly dragging my pinky on something makes a massing difference.

    Surgery resident PGY1 question: In terms of OR etiquette for residents, 1) when is a good time to ask questions about parts of the case you don't understand? 2) Should I ask for permission to perform certain aspects of the operation? Sometimes I'm not sure if I should ask to close/make incision/tie a knot or if I should be patient and wait for my attendings to give me the opportunity in due time. Also, how do I deal with the pressure of performing maneuvers quickly (when I rather go slowly but correctly) so that the attendings/fellows don't take the instruments back to finish?

      My response might be useless since your post is a year old, but my mom (an ob-gyn) told me to ask to do small things to get the attending to trust you, and then ask for bigger roles as they gain confidence in your abilities

    I’ve always wanted to be a surgeon. I’ve got the grades to do it, I was just confused on the logistics. You really helped to clear some of my confusion up on the best fields, managing a work life balance, etc. Keep up the great work!

      Pause. Breathe. Slow down. Think. Then go.
      As Victor Frankl once said, "Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom." Easier said than done.

      I think panic comes from not feeling in control. What helps with having control is experience, because the more you are put in that position, the more you learn for next time. You also gain control and calmness when you are familiar with the environment, the people, and the instruments used. Again, experience. You can't convince me that the calm attendings we see now weren't freaking out at one point as a student.

  • @psycholocke4090
    @psycholocke4090 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    during listening to you i got a couple ideas:
    - watching Big Clife soldering is a very good example of experience of how to utilise your fingers and eye hand coordination. and as he says "it is only practise"
    - also other delicate hand work you do might help. from sewing over assembling plastic models or wood carving or drawing or artistic writing can help develop the wanted finesse.... even playing an instrument.
    - tremor and shaking is often caused by nervousness or insufficient nutrition. so be sure to eat and drink well.
    I think overcoming the nervousness or the ... how it is called in German "Lampenfieber"... is more of a problem.
    my advise would be for these people: you are not an actor watched by a million eyes. you are here to do your job, you need to focus on the task as everone else does in this room. calm yourself to help your patient.
    if you ask yourself, why is an professional IT worker watching this? because for preparation in case of an emergency.

    Does being left-handed or right-handed make any difference to the surgical team?

    • @Traumasurgeonjames
      @Traumasurgeonjames 4 ปีที่แล้ว +15

      TheDerek47
      Like most left-handers, I had to make a decision early in surgical training to remain purely left-handed or to become ambidextrous. I took the latter route and adjusted my handedness depending on exposure, position and attending preferences. This meant that I usually opened with my right hand (to avoid clashing instruments with my invariably right-handed attending), sewed in the right-to-left direction (since attendings were used to setting up anastomoses in certain right-handed ways) and tied right-handed. When I had opportunities to sew left-handed, I excelled at (i) confusing the scrub nurse, (ii) confusing the attending and (iii) spinning the customarily right-loaded needle by its tip to properly orient my needle. Relapses of left-handedness during an operation often gave my staff an uncomfortable pause and generated some of my favorite ACGME evaluations: “ambi-confused” and “ambi-awkward.” Memorable cases with old-school surgeons also occurred whereby I was “strongly encouraged” to operate right-handed with the immutable logic that surgery was a right-handed profession. Fortunately the vast majority of my attendings took up the challenge of teaching a southpaw proper surgical principles despite my attempts at sabotage!!!!!!!!!

      The scrub tech will load the suture the opposite direction if we know, but more often we don't know.

      Pause. Breathe. Reflect on what you're so scared of, accept it with compassion, choose to move on, and remember your purpose. Breathe again. Maybe one more time. Focus. Act. It takes practice, but it's effective for stress management in general. Also consider counselling if you're having issues with PTSD. Look for LCPC, LPSW-C, or PhD.

    Damn, please allow us to use videos and such in the OR so residents and med students can learn first hand. No other form better then this besides “hands on”. HIPPA laws need to change. As a surgeon I am petitioning in court to allow these changes. Doing this could reduce actual residency years needed (5) . And will have less malpractice and students will learn 100% more through this way of love videos of actual surgeries !!! It’s a Proven fact and statistic and also common sense !!!
    Get your heads out of your ass medical boards !!! Starting petition as we speak for us !!!!!
    As an attending surgeon , I am sure I will get backlash. Oh well !!!!!!
