@davidadams9391 3 года назад

I am glad to learn! You always meet the anesthesiologist before the doctor and surgery but I never knew what questions I could ask. One time I did ask what medication I was getting and he said Propofol. I always try to see how long I can stay awake. Lol. I also like to look around the operating room to see if I can see the instruments they will use. Thanks to you, next time I will ask a lot more questions. I always got a cannula for oxygen until last time. They put me to sleep without oxygen. I know I got some type of breathing tube after I was out. I use to pass out if I saw a needle! Haha. I am not afraid anymore. I will be watching your postings. Have a Great day and thanks again.

My days in the OR mid 1950’s, the anaesthetist had a Boyle’s anaesthetic machine, no electricity required. Other equipment in the OR was a diathermy unit, suction pump, and not much else requiring electricity. Things changed when we started open heart surgery using the Melrose By-Pass Machine-1957. Over the past 12 months I have had several spinal surgeries-so very familiar with the equipment in a neuro theatre as a patient-having a good look round, thanks to my anaesthetist. A huge contrast to my OR days so long ago. Greetings from Tasmania Australia. Very interesting series.

First it was AM/FM radios, then boomboxes, then really nice stereos with CD players and sound systems with speakers in the walls & ceilings to Bluetooth playlists. A wide variety of musical choices; from surgeons who want absolute quiet to surgeons that play some unique music & played it extra loud. Music played during the day vs. during emergency surgery at 0300. I was amazed how the RN “a.k.a. The DJ” could change the music from classic rock to a mellow jazz and make some surgeons calm down. But alas, I worked in a different time & culture of the OR. Back when different surgeons (& their behaviors) were tolerated. I do miss it all, especially being scrubbed the whole shift & relieving person after person at the end of their shifts. RN (ret), CNOR (E)

@ChrisPBacon-ok7ir Год назад

This is one of your older videos but I've been watching a lot of them. I had spine surgery and was intubated and and probably paralyzed and I was given some serious drugs and had a hard time coming down in the recovery room and an outpatient procedure turned into a 3 day hospital stay. I cried for no reason, I couldn't see right, I couldn't think right and I threw up after I'd been taken to my room. In the OR when the Dr. asked "are you ready" I was going to say "good night" but I was out the instant I said "yes, I'm ready."

@12:00 the last surgery I had, I went in, the surgeon himself was in his early 60s... I get wheeled into the OR and hear rap music being played, I myself like all types of music, but truly I laughed and it helped put me at ease. Laughter is the best medicine and truly it pulled any anxiety off of me, and as you have said that is a big deal.

Hi Dr. Feinstein, I have watched all your videos on here and I’m hooked and find them fascinating. I’m getting ready to have back surgery on 9/7. I’m having a Laminectomy on my L4/L5. I noticed you touched a bit on how the Prone position is a difficult and very intricate situation with watching intubation and leads. I’m a big person, I’m 6’0 and I’m on the overweight side of the scale, but I’m pretty healthy as far as co morbidities go. Anything tips? Also I’m usually a hard stick (for IV’s). So Even though this is my like 16th surgery with general, Im a little nervous with the position and placement of IV. Thank you for all your content! I absolutely love watching it and you have such a great demeanor and knowledge. A very calming sense about all things anesthesia. Sure wish you were gonna be my Anesthesiologist! Stay well, and continue making great content. LeeAnn- Las Vegas,NV

@MaxFeinsteinMD Год назад

Hi LeeAnn, I totally understand your concerns, and I think these are great questions to discuss with your anesthesiologist prior to surgery. While I can’t provide any specifics, it’s extremely likely that your anesthesiologist is very accustomed to these types of surgeries and how to safely position patients for them.

@charlizesilver-davila6816 3 года назад

what do you do when people wake up during surgery? does it happen often? I heard once someone felt all the pain during there surgery. how often does that happen?

@MaxFeinsteinMD 3 года назад

Hi Charlize, these are great questions. It’s intuitive to think about being anesthetized as a binary thing, where someone is either awake/conscious/remembering or completely under general anesthesia. In reality, anesthesia is more of a continuum, and typically patients are so deeply anesthetized for surgery that there’s no quick way of being fully conscious or making new memories. It’s not unusual for a patient to become “light” during surgery, in which case we simply give a little more of whichever med(s) we’re using for anesthesia. That lightness may manifest as a bit of purposeless muscle movement or increased blood pressure, but it’s extraordinarily rare for anyone to have any subjectively meaningful about of consciousness until we turn off the anesthesia. Hope that helps!

Max, are there additional hemodynamic implications of steep trendelenburg for prolonged periods of time?

@MaxFeinsteinMD 3 года назад

One of the big ones I didn’t discuss in this video is significantly increased airway pressures because the abdominal contents are pressing against the diaphragm. This has the same implications as laparoscopic and robotic surgery (decreased venous return to the heart). There may be other implications that I haven’t learned about yet tho!

@caseyrose6365 3 года назад

@@MaxFeinsteinMD Got it. I was pimped by an OB attending regarding the use of NG tubes by anesthesiologists after difficult intubations when trendelenburg would be used in Gyn surgeries. Maybe the same principal of the abdominal organs (air filled stomach) pressing back onto the diaphragm?

Depends what you mean by memorize- there are so many facts about one single drug (brand name, generic name, mechanism of action, duration of action, alpha half-life, beta half-life, side effects etc etc) but I don’t know all of that information for each drug yet. I know a lot about the drugs I use most commonly, and a reasonable amount about other drugs. Overall, I’d say I’ve studied maybe 150-200 different drugs.

Our CT scanner is called an O arm and opens up like a big C.

What’s your favourite music for the OR?

Hello. If a patient needed to be defribulated who would do this? You or the surgeon? And would you be tag teaming interventions? Thank you.

@MaxFeinsteinMD 3 года назад

That would be the anesthesiologist, contrary to what Grey’s Anatomy would have most people believe haha.

@johnorchard6158 3 года назад

Thanks. Your videos are amazing.

I am going under for dental work (Not normal in Norway) to do multiple things. Is that usually the same way of going under as general?

@MaxFeinsteinMD 3 года назад

Hi Linn, the type of anesthesia given for dental work is really dependent on what the dentist/surgeon decides is most appropriate. It's not unusual to have general anesthesia for dental procedures. If you do receive general anesthesia, you'll probably receive the same typical medication(s) that are used for inducing general anesthesia for other types of surgery. Best of luck!

@linnsoltwedel 3 года назад

@@MaxFeinsteinMD Thank you so much for answering me! :) Had a few surgery's but never for dental work. I have MAJOR dental fear so ill be under while they do a lot of work, like root canal fillings. Again, THANK YOU! :D

I recently had a robotic (DaVinci xi) total colectomy and my anesthesiologist put a tape on my forehead that has spikes underneath it. I believe there must be different methods of monitoring anesthetic status but do you know about this specific type of monitoring method? I’ve been curious about this for so long. 😅

@MaxFeinsteinMD 3 года назад

Hi Youhan, the monitor you had placed was most likely a bispectral index monitor (BIS for short). That's a commonly-used monitor that quantifies how anesthetized a patient is based on a modified form of electroencephalogram (EEG) waveforms that are interpreted by a piece of software. There's debate as to how reliable/useful this information is-- some anesthesiologists swear by it, others would never use it. Personally, I use it sometimes but not all the time.

@abirkalai5688 3 года назад

It shows a number between 0 and 100. The best range for general anesthesia in the operating room is between 40 and 60. Let's say it dropped to 20, that means you're too heavily sedated and the anesthesiologist may decrease the dose of the drug. On the other side, I saw a few patients's eyes nearly open at 80. It's easy and practical, for some patients with heart conditions for example cannot tolerate high doses of drugs, so BIS helps determine the minime dose to maintain them "asleep" without the side effects on their heart.

Dr Feinstein, you were talking about a partner getting woozy during a C section...have you ever gotten sick during a surgery and had to leave the operating room?

@MaxFeinsteinMD 3 года назад

Great question- hasn't happened to me yet, but if it does, my first move would be to call for backup anesthesia help and hand over the reigns to someone else.

I would like to know how you feel about NA verses an MD I've been told by NA that they have the same training that MD have which I disagree I always request a MD to do my anesthesia Thanks
