Thank you for giving the housekeepers the credit they deserve, they all work so hard to keep the hospital clean and ready for the next patient! It's funny about the sleeping thing, in EMS the same thing happens as soon as the boots are off and you body hits the sheets you are almost guaranteed to get a call!
No kidding! I spent a month in ICU during the pandemic and the housekeeping staff not only did their jobs so well, they were kind and gracious and took time to chat with me every day which was such a HUGE blessing to me and I count them among the professionals who helped save my life!
I was a housekeeper in cath lab, main or, and EP lab before I become a surgical tech so loved it. Always try to clean up my mess after a case because it really helps.
I have to admit to being a little curious with all that blood and tissue in trauma operations, how the nooks and crannies and wires and ports and all the little things are sanitized...
Housekeeping is one of those thankless jobs because when it's done well, it's easy not to notice it was done at all. A dirty room is easy to notice. A clean room is "normal." My sincere appreciation to everyone who keeps these facilities clean. Hygiene is the bedrock of medicine. It would not be possible without them!
@@swimshady7314because it means he's done with school so to speak and is officially in his specialty now. Yes he was doing it before but there's still behind the scenes stuff going on. He gets to officially be fully in the zone which is exciting!!!
I had a c section with my son. And I was never forget the anesthesiologist he was the most chilled/calming person ever really helped the traumatic experience I was having , stayed by my side. Nicest man ever!
Whoa, dude I didn't realize you became the ATTENDING ANESTHESIOLOGIST! I just wanted to say congratulations! I am a MICU RN that's been pondering taking the next step towards CRNA and over the last year or so I've been subscribed you have always been a great inspiration. Congrats again, Max
Thanks for the nice feedback! I'm only an attending for the month of July, then next week I start peds anesthesia fellowship. Good luck on your career path!
Hi Max, I sure hope you post some videos during your time in Pediatrics. That’s the area of anesthesia that I am most interested. And no one can explain it better than you!
@@MaxFeinsteinMD this is a bit off the topic of this video but still related to general Anesthesia, as an anesthesiologist you might appreciate this joke, I was going to tell you a joke about Anesthesetics, but I was afraid that it might put everyone to sleep. I don't intend to imply that Anesthesia is funny because it's a serious subject this is just my poor attempt at a joke but I also acknowledge that Anesthesia is a serious medical subject.
I have often wondered why every hospital can't have level 1 trauma care, and this video pretty much summed it up. It takes lots of space, lots of interventional radiology machines whatever those are, lots of consumables, lots of specialists, lots of... Top notch trauma care really takes a lot of effort and resources, not every hospital can manage to allocate those resources.
Dr. Finestein, I just wanted to take a second to say how educational and entertaining your videos are. Thank you for taking the time to plan and produce your quality videos. I am sure you have helped many wary patients enter the operating theater with significantly less fear and trepidation.
I appreciate u giving the cleaners credit!! I currently work as a cleaner at my local level 1 trauma centre in the Emergency department. My dad works as a cardiac Anesthesiologist at the same hospital, so your videos are super interesting as they provide insight into what he does up in the OR. I’ll be applying to medschool this upcoming cycle and would say you (and my dad) have both been big inspirations for me, keep up the great content!
For those interested, the "Q" word is "quiet". NEVER say that when you're on call for traumas! A sure way to get things running fast. It was educational seeing how the trauma room looks after a massive transfusion. As a blood banker, I only see the product as it goes out the door, so to speak. I wonder if the blood gets placed on or near the fluid warmer just in case there's a sudden need for it? Thanks for the tour on your busy 24 hours!
As someone who’s been in multiple/different bike accidents/falls before due to bad terrain/road conditions I can definitely attest to the importance of wearing helmets!!! The one where I hit a patch of soft sand on a trail access ramp and fell backwards landing flat on my back on the trail actually cracked part of my helmet and I had to buy a new one, I was definitely grateful I was wearing it that day. Also as a blood donor I really appreciate seeing some of the scenarios and equipment wherein blood products are used because it reminds of the importance and why I do it.
I really appreciate the fact that your department / hospital is supportive and aware of your channel and supportive of your content. I guess I always worry about some healthcare professionals recording on the job, but it’s really helpful and educational for us viewers. It’s good to know you’re backed by your hospital to do it. Props to you!
I love the hard working staff at Elmhurst hospital. I was born there 32 years ago. Keep up the great work, you and your team are very much appreciated.
As a hospital employee, I think all HCW are important, each member plays a vital role, whether it is on frontline (direct patient care), or not on frontline. W/out every single hospital staff, it would make doing my job more challenging. So thank you!
While I understand that doctors don't grow on trees, and, as such, these situations are necessary, the notion that medical professionals don't have sleep requirements in a manor similar to that of other safety critical professions (such as pilots, for instance) is slightly terrifying.
It’s all part of the job and they train to work under extreme pressure and yes, often sleep deprived. Consider this scenario- you are a thoracic surgeon doing a heart or lung transplant or any complicated surgery- “things” start to go wrong in surgery and a 4-5 hour surgery turns into 8-10 hours. That’s when the years of stressful residency and repetitive experience have trained you to overcome the pressure and stress of someone’s life literally depending on you. Repetitive training while under extreme stress is the same method used for Navy Seals and s
@@WilliamWBG any human being, no matter how well adapted they may be, is going to perform better when well rested. No amount of training can get around that.
I’m glad people recognize this. It’s slowly getting better, and several states and many healthcare systems have laws and policies in place to prevent such long shifts for safety reasons.
Wow growing up around elmhurst hospital I actually was in a car accident and was taken there and was taken care of- the trauma bay always packed with victims like us. a lot has changed thank you for your service again. ❤
Thank you so much for making this video. So many people have a hand in helping the process along. And the equipment used---amazing. Emergency trauma centers have so much intense situations that happen. Takes a special breed to thrive in those conditions. Thank you for sharing so much
I enjoy learning from your videos about anesthesiology. You are so sweet and down to earth with no attitude of being a Dr. like often seen. The blood monitor you showed is such an asset to not have to send blood to the lab.
You sir are AWESOME! I’ve had 9 heart surgeries. And I wish you were apart of them. Thank you for all that you do and I can tell you genuinely care about your team and patients! Keep it up my friend
I’m impressed by how well prepared you are in the surgical suite and how you’re notified that a severe case is coming in. Here in Canada, I don’t think a stoke would get looked at. Probably come in via ambulance then park that person in the hallway for a few hours. It’s very common here for people to pass away while waiting for treatment.
I LOVE anesthesiologists!!!! you guys do NOT get enough credit after I had my 1 baby I started making thank you gifts/cards for my anesthesiologists NOT just nurses & ob!!!!! You guys took the worst pain away! my first baby I had at 20 was young thought I can handle labor pain Im young strong…. lets just say once the epidural started working & my anesthesiologist came back in to check on me I was crying happy tears & hugging him thanking him repeatedly lol!!!
You guys rock. Love all medical personal , nurses, doctors, ambulance, fire. You don't give them the credit they deserve until you yourself or your family needs serious help. Without these specialized people we would be in trouble. They deserve all the credit, funding needed to save our families lives.
Great content as usual. He does these videos to educate and as a passion, so I have respect for that. He doesn’t have to do this. He is busy enough I’m sure. Thanks again for your passion.
Wow trauma anesthesiologist is very cool! I learned so much! It takes a special person to be a anesthesiologist or CRNA and you’re one of them! I really enjoy donating to the anesthesiologist Foundation, since it was hard for me to go to college because of my cerebral palsy, I really wanted to be a anesthesiologist physician! You rock man! I really love anesthesiologist
Hi Max i am impressed with your video's . I worked in Elmhurst in 1972/3 as a anesthesiologist from the Netherlands. I know....I couldnt work as such but i did. Had 3 president as my responsibility. I met Dr.Shoemaker during his rounds in the ICU. Am impressed with the super trauma equipment. Great. I went back to the Netherlands and retired in 2005
You are kind and display the qualities an excellent anesthesiologist and heath care provider should have. I know it takes a lot of time and effort to make these videos, but they are excellent and extremely informative. I have learned so very much. The very best to you...
Truly love your vlogs, I was so excited when I saw you posted one!!!! As an ER nurse, I love seeing how passionate you are about your job and your patients. And I love that I can learn new things from your videos too, even as a HCW!!! One of my absolute favorite TH-camrs!! Your videos are truly so fun to watch 🫶🏼
Congratulations Dr. Feinstein, Attending Anesthesiologist!! You did great! You have grown in your profession and I know that you are a wonderful doctor! Thanks for a good video! It really is interesting to watch the other video when you were a resident! Nice to see the growth!! 😊
The anesthesiologist that took care of me during my c section was amazing. Such a nice guy and took care of me so well. I started getting horrible referred pain, which he handled so fast. Then I got nauseous with the morphine and he gave me that zofran so quick lol. He even took pictures of my (breech) baby getting pulled out of my abdomen and they’re my favorite pictures. I was young and afraid and he was great 👍🏽
Love this video. I am currently an anesthesia technologist and I love my anesthesiologist… I always operate the Belmont so the anesthesia provider can focus on other things during a trauma. It’s an amazing job!
Hi Dr. Feinstein! I Stumbled across this video on my homepage and I’m so glad I clicked! I’m graduating with my BSN in one month and this video was so educational and entertaining! Most of my OR experience is in Labor and Delivery which is where I will be working early next year as an RN and we work pretty closely with our anesthesia team. The operating room is one of those areas in a hospital that not many people get to see because it is more restricted so thank you so much for sharing your experience and thank you for what you do as an MD in your trauma care setting!
Hi Dr. Feinstein, I enjoy your videos/vlogs, but I especially enjoyed this one. It's so informative, and so nice to see your comical side as well. Thank you for all that you do.
Elmhurst Hospital is a special place for me. They have lots of records with my name on them spanning from childhood to child birth! 💖 Love this video!!
Hi Max big fan of your videos . I work on the medical waste field . And I currently work Elmhurts at least once a week amount other Hospitals. You have cover nicely the atmosphere of the trauma rush - good job !!!
i’m a junior in hs and i want to work as a nurse in the hospital so i love watching vids like these to see the different medical jobs day in the life it’s so interesting
Hey Dr. Max, I've been following your videos for a while, it's funny that you went to that bakery, because im writing from Cali, Colombia. I'm starting med school soon, and i'm very interested in anesthesiology, of course I still have to go into med school and actually see what I like, but from your videos I've gotten great inspiration, also I've been several times into the hospital for many medical problems, and I feel like anesthesiologists role accompanying the patients for me on the patient side, can be a huge difference on how you feel and how confident you feel for any surgeries, so I wanna be one of those doctors that will make you feel safe and that you are being actually cared of :D (you give me that vibe on your videos so I look up to all these things), local pandebonos ofc are the best so hopefully one day you can visit this beatiful city, if you do and want to learn salsa I was a salsa teacher for some time I would gladly give you some lessons haha! :D Best of luck and very happy that you now say anesthesiologist wiithout the resident! Keep up the good work with the videos, I'm guessing that as me ther are many other people inspired by them :)
Great job. As a retired medic from the Show Me State it is great to see you doing great. I understand you are from Missouri. As foar as going to bed and getting called it happens. It would be great for you to come back to Missouri
Your videos Really helped me and my wife she has a needle phobia and had to have her gallbladder surgery i had her watch you explained a lot of her fears
I work in an ICU in Norway and it's nice to see that so much of the equipment we use is also used overseas. I recognize a lot of this equipment and medications but I could still never work in the US because my license wouldn't be valid.
You just reminded me when I was on call for trauma at Manchester Royal infirmary hospital as an ST 7 Anaesthetic trainee. Thank God I survived all in my calls 😅
Thank you for a really engaging look at the role of an on-call anesthesiologist managing emergencies and traumas! Also, thank you tremendously for the shoutout for Bolivian Llama Party, which was a standout hit for our family while visiting NYC. The friendly staff at BLP were definitely shocked when we answered their "How did you hear about us?" question during our visit. 😂
3:30 An OR with a lot of blood sprayed around has a weird smell of metallic copper. 5:12 Your beeper just sent a shiver up my spine. The sound became a neural whip after thirty years,
Max, please address obesity as it concerns anesthesia and surgery in one of your videos if you haven't yet. I just had a lumbar laminectomy last week and the neurosurgeon told me if I needed surgery again on my back, no one would do it because of my weight.
Wow !! I really enjoyed this video . I worked O.R. , recovery room , just for training and Labor & delivery. Which was very interesting. Keep up the good work ! 👏👏👏👏👏🤗👊❤
Love your videos Max. I just wondering because this isn’t your usual hospital, are most operating rooms set up the same? Or how difficult is it to adjust to different operating room set ups?
I have the worst memory of being in the PACU after surgery and being in so much pain but not being able to open my eyes because the world was spinning. I heard a nurse say "she's sleeping" and I just shouted "I"m not sleeping!" opened my eyes, puked everywhere and cried even more. UGHHH
Thank you Dr Feinstein for another well thoughout video. I enjoy how you teach us valuable information while keeping things interesting. Happy Holidays to you doctor and wishing you a happy and healthy New Year 2024! 🎉
A great way to see if you’d like the operating room is applying for operating room assistant or SST entry level. Great to see if you like the environment before any schooling. You’d be surprised how many med students pass out from their first surgery.
Induction Maintence Emergence. I could not remember Emergence today. Anyway Thanks Dr. F love these videos and they get better the next few times around.
Max, I’ve noticed that you keep your engagement/wedding ring on. Here in Brazil there’s this legislation on the use of adornments which is really about preventing work related injuries, but they stretch it saying it’s to decrease infection rates. My brother, an urologist, worked in Cleveland for years and he said it was not that big of a deal doctors keeping their rings on, even surgeons. Any insight on this matter?
Excellent videos and information. I am wondering what the procedure is for Emergency patients suffering critical injuries and HOW do you gte them under anesthesia when you have NO MEDICAL history and due to the injuries you need to get them under anesthesia FAST?
You put them on oxygen, then give an induction medicine to put them to sleep, a paralytic agent to allow for the placement of a breathing tube, and then they put the tube in quickly
That’s one of the greatest setbacks in emergency care. Thankfully allergies to anesthetic agents are really rare. Most of the time we have to deal “only” with the expected side effects any of them may exert on the patient’s physiology, which is already shaken by the trauma itself. This makes even more critical a broad and deep understanding of the different drugs and techniques used to anesthetize those patients.
Do the operating cleaners clean all your machines for you? What if you are busy in another surgery who sets up all the equipment and restocks your supplies? Do you work with nurse anesthetist? Do they do weekend call to. I’m a retired paramedic I still remember going into surgery to refresh our skills. Thank you so enjoy your videos.
I've got to do a week of oncall every 5-6 weeks for my MSP job and it's pretty rough, I can't imagine how much more stressful it is when you're working on people instead of servers in a much faster pace then I do.
Hey Max, I was watching a couple old videos of yours and saw you mentioning that you were interested in going into pediatric anesthesiology specifically. Are you still planning on pursuing that or did you change your mind? Am currently in medical school and strongly considering a career in peds anesthesia so would be very curious to hear your thoughts on this. Thanks!
I'd show the part of the video with the aftermath of the first trauma case in the operating room to anyone who is speeding, drives recklessly or does not wear any seatbelts. Hopefully some people would think twice...
Love your videos, always very professional and spot on. People don’t always give anesthesia the credit they deserve. IMHO, anesthesia is the most important person in the OR, but we won’t mention that to the surgeons. Since you are also responsible for PACU, how do you handle being needed there for an issue when you are on another case?
Great content. I love when a Dr. Gives u their perspective. So thank you for taking the time to create your videos. Im in The RT program currently..with an end goal of becoming CAA. It's really motivating to see someone who's successful in a related field. I suppose ill leave a question..Dr. Feinstein, do you work with CAA's at your hospital?
Great video. I'm a Respiratory Therapist at a level 1 trauma hospital (at one of your HHC sister hospitals). For intubated or trach-to-vent patients going to IR, we keep them on a transport vent for the IR procedure. I'm curious if you do the same, or if you place them on the anesthesia vent regardless. I am also wondering how you have so many empty rooms! Our PACU is busy at all hours - I'm shocked that yours was closed. (And I will not tell your higher ups, but that central line kit is expired...whoops.)
In this situation, would you start your day and take over that trauma surgery or would that anesthesiologist continue until the surgery is over and then hand over the reins?
Thank you for giving the housekeepers the credit they deserve, they all work so hard to keep the hospital clean and ready for the next patient! It's funny about the sleeping thing, in EMS the same thing happens as soon as the boots are off and you body hits the sheets you are almost guaranteed to get a call!

Hi Max big fan of your videos . I work on the medical waste field . And I currently work Elmhurts at least once a week amount other Hospitals. You have cover nicely the atmosphere of the trauma rush - good job !!!
i’m a junior in hs and i want to work as a nurse in the hospital so i love watching vids like these to see the different medical jobs day in the life it’s so interesting
Hey friend and Dr. Thank you for everything you do to help others.
I really enjoyed this video and the comedy. It's great to see the human side of doctors.
Hey Dr. Max, I've been following your videos for a while, it's funny that you went to that bakery, because im writing from Cali, Colombia. I'm starting med school soon, and i'm very interested in anesthesiology, of course I still have to go into med school and actually see what I like, but from your videos I've gotten great inspiration, also I've been several times into the hospital for many medical problems, and I feel like anesthesiologists role accompanying the patients for me on the patient side, can be a huge difference on how you feel and how confident you feel for any surgeries, so I wanna be one of those doctors that will make you feel safe and that you are being actually cared of :D (you give me that vibe on your videos so I look up to all these things), local pandebonos ofc are the best so hopefully one day you can visit this beatiful city, if you do and want to learn salsa I was a salsa teacher for some time I would gladly give you some lessons haha! :D Best of luck and very happy that you now say anesthesiologist wiithout the resident! Keep up the good work with the videos, I'm guessing that as me ther are many other people inspired by them :)
Great job. As a retired medic from the Show Me State it is great to see you doing great. I understand you are from Missouri. As foar as going to bed and getting called it happens. It would be great for you to come back to Missouri
Your videos Really helped me and my wife she has a needle phobia and had to have her gallbladder surgery i had her watch you explained a lot of her fears
I work in an ICU in Norway and it's nice to see that so much of the equipment we use is also used overseas. I recognize a lot of this equipment and medications but I could still never work in the US because my license wouldn't be valid.
You just reminded me when I was on call for trauma at Manchester Royal infirmary hospital as an ST 7 Anaesthetic trainee. Thank God I survived all in my calls 😅
God bless hospital janitors
Thank you for a really engaging look at the role of an on-call anesthesiologist managing emergencies and traumas! Also, thank you tremendously for the shoutout for Bolivian Llama Party, which was a standout hit for our family while visiting NYC. The friendly staff at BLP were definitely shocked when we answered their "How did you hear about us?" question during our visit. 😂
3:30 An OR with a lot of blood sprayed around has a weird smell of metallic copper.
5:12 Your beeper just sent a shiver up my spine. The sound became a neural whip after thirty years,
good man for not mentioning the 'Q' word. In paramedicine we very much believe in the jinx that is the saying the 'Q' word out loud whilst on shift
Thanks for your job saving humans lives
As a Paramedic, i totally feel ya on the "as soon as my head hits the pillow" comment. Oh, and the "Q" word.
I absolutely love your videos! Always educational and entertaining! Keep up the great work!
Max, please address obesity as it concerns anesthesia and surgery in one of your videos if you haven't yet. I just had a lumbar laminectomy last week and the neurosurgeon told me if I needed surgery again on my back, no one would do it because of my weight.
Wow !! I really enjoyed this video .
I worked O.R. , recovery room , just for training and Labor & delivery.
Which was very interesting.
Keep up the good work !
👏👏👏👏👏🤗👊❤
Noti gang 💯💯💯
Any day is a good day for a video from max
Love your videos Max. I just wondering because this isn’t your usual hospital, are most operating rooms set up the same? Or how difficult is it to adjust to different operating room set ups?
I have the worst memory of being in the PACU after surgery and being in so much pain but not being able to open my eyes because the world was spinning. I heard a nurse say "she's sleeping" and I just shouted "I"m not sleeping!" opened my eyes, puked everywhere and cried even more. UGHHH
That’s terrifying, hope everything turned out ok
Thank you Dr Feinstein for another well thoughout video. I enjoy how you teach us valuable information while keeping things interesting. Happy Holidays to you doctor and wishing you a happy and healthy New Year 2024! 🎉
Thank you Dr. For the tour. Very interesting.
3:40 woah, that's a bloodbath. Wonder what kind of injuries were involved.
Also, I would love to see how cleanup is done after such a messy case.
A great way to see if you’d like the operating room is applying for operating room assistant or SST entry level. Great to see if you like the environment before any schooling. You’d be surprised how many med students pass out from their first surgery.
How long does it take the cleaners to go from what you showed in the first clip in the OR to being ready for the next patient?
Induction Maintence Emergence. I could not remember Emergence today. Anyway Thanks Dr. F love these videos and they get better the next few times around.
Max, I’ve noticed that you keep your engagement/wedding ring on. Here in Brazil there’s this legislation on the use of adornments which is really about preventing work related injuries, but they stretch it saying it’s to decrease infection rates. My brother, an urologist, worked in Cleveland for years and he said it was not that big of a deal doctors keeping their rings on, even surgeons. Any insight on this matter?
From a trauma patient , who was not going to be typing this , if it wasnt for the helmet - listen to Max and wear a PROPER helmet.
❤. Thank you Max! Your knowledge is priceless! Kind Regards, England 🇬🇧
I like how you explain everything about the operation room and you as an anesthesia I like your video
How in heck does housekeeping clean those trauma rooms????
Excellent videos and information. I am wondering what the procedure is for Emergency patients suffering critical injuries and HOW do you gte them under anesthesia when you have NO MEDICAL history and due to the injuries you need to get them under anesthesia FAST?
You put them on oxygen, then give an induction medicine to put them to sleep, a paralytic agent to allow for the placement of a breathing tube, and then they put the tube in quickly
That’s one of the greatest setbacks in emergency care. Thankfully allergies to anesthetic agents are really rare. Most of the time we have to deal “only” with the expected side effects any of them may exert on the patient’s physiology, which is already shaken by the trauma itself. This makes even more critical a broad and deep understanding of the different drugs and techniques used to anesthetize those patients.
My uncle is an internal medicine dr. When he’s on the service he works long hours and seven days a week.
Do the operating cleaners clean all your machines for you? What if you are busy in another surgery who sets up all the equipment and restocks your supplies? Do you work with nurse anesthetist? Do they do weekend call to. I’m a retired paramedic I still remember going into surgery to refresh our skills. Thank you so enjoy your videos.
Watching you put your head on the pillow was like watching a dr glaucomflecken skit lol. It was hilarious
All I can say is fantastic, thank you for the insight
I've got to do a week of oncall every 5-6 weeks for my MSP job and it's pretty rough, I can't imagine how much more stressful it is when you're working on people instead of servers in a much faster pace then I do.
Hey Max, I was watching a couple old videos of yours and saw you mentioning that you were interested in going into pediatric anesthesiology specifically. Are you still planning on pursuing that or did you change your mind? Am currently in medical school and strongly considering a career in peds anesthesia so would be very curious to hear your thoughts on this. Thanks!
I start pediatric anesthesia fellowship this coming week!
@@MaxFeinsteinMD Amazing!! Looking forward to hearing about that experience. Best of luck!
YEAHHH MAX IS OFFICIALLY A ANESTHESIOLOGIST ‼️🙌😎🎉
I love it when my anesthesiologist does a follow-up after surgery. It's nice to see a familiar face when I'm not doing well.
I'd show the part of the video with the aftermath of the first trauma case in the operating room to anyone who is speeding, drives recklessly or does not wear any seatbelts. Hopefully some people would think twice...
Wow do you even get sleep. I salute you for such a serious life changing career. I couldn't do it. Wow this amazes me
I’m starting to believe that even thinking the ”Q” word has negative effects.
Please Dr also make a video on the role of Anesthesia technologist/technician in your team that'll be very helpful
Dr. Finestein thank you for sharing!
Love your videos, always very professional and spot on. People don’t always give anesthesia the credit they deserve. IMHO, anesthesia is the most important person in the OR, but we won’t mention that to the surgeons. Since you are also responsible for PACU, how do you handle being needed there for an issue when you are on another case?
Great content. I love when a Dr. Gives u their perspective. So thank you for taking the time to create your videos. Im in The RT program currently..with an end goal of becoming CAA. It's really motivating to see someone who's successful in a related field. I suppose ill leave a question..Dr. Feinstein, do you work with CAA's at your hospital?
Jajajajajaja el plot twist del pan de bono!!! Ahora tengo que ir a probarlo a ver si sabe igual que acá! Excelente video mi hermano.
Great video. I'm a Respiratory Therapist at a level 1 trauma hospital (at one of your HHC sister hospitals). For intubated or trach-to-vent patients going to IR, we keep them on a transport vent for the IR procedure. I'm curious if you do the same, or if you place them on the anesthesia vent regardless. I am also wondering how you have so many empty rooms! Our PACU is busy at all hours - I'm shocked that yours was closed. (And I will not tell your higher ups, but that central line kit is expired...whoops.)
Bolivian pal watching your videos, great to hear you're enjoying your quinoa
Thank you Dr. Max. I love all your videos ❤
In this situation, would you start your day and take over that trauma surgery or would that anesthesiologist continue until the surgery is over and then hand over the reins?
No way I came to an anesthesiologist video to see him eat a salteña. Cheers from a Bolivian!
