@@aldegebra77 as a fellow?! Man I thought at least after residency it would stop. Glad to be a PA, at least I got to exit the student role a lot sooner. Ahh medicine, what a wholesome supportive field
I felt every single part of this. Especially when the resident/fellow/attending tells you to "hang out with the patient" while they get the consents ready/chart. Except they take 15 minutes so you stand there, afraid to leave because said res/fellow/attending may walk up while you stand outside. And proceed to berate you in front of the nurses, patient, and patient transport team.
Just had a procedure done last week and only got some sedation but I was afraid of feeling pain. The anesthesiologist told me: Don't you worry, I go hard on the fentanyl. Don't remember a thing!
Nailed Anesthesiologist being so chill all the time, and the surgeon answering all questions with “maybe” and “depends” And the nurse “easiest stick ever” followed by “your veins are very bad must be you, definitely not me”
I’m pretty sure the joke was that because it was easy she gave it to the med student to give them an easy win and help them feel confident in themselves
@@potatorurik7536 umm I don't think so since the dude was part of the anesthesia team and was asking about consent haha. I think the nurse was trying to get with the anesth 👀😆
Hehehe this is pretty accurate... in my case it was an emergency appendectomy while 27 weeks pregnant. They had me on a high dose of dilaudid and every time someone came in and introduced themselves I would cry and earnestly ask them "Do you like your job? Are you happy? Are you having a good shift?" and then I would ask them their name multiple times and say something like "I'm so so sorry but I'm not going to remember that. I'm on drugs. Reallllllllyyyy strong drugs. I feel fine!" and then cry again.
Man I'm getting flashbacks. Just realised I already finished my last surgery rotation. If everything goes well I'll never have go to theatre again! Fingers crossed
My favorite part of pre op is pulling back my cap to show the anesthesiologist I’m a ginger. Also if they seem cool I’ll ask if I can push my own propofol. They love it when I hand it back to them.
Usually when a patient asks me as the anesthesia provider if it’s going to hurt, I tell them it depends because every person’s pain tolerance is different, but if they are in pain they will be given pain medication and depending on the procedure we can also do a regional block to numb the area so that it doesn’t hurt for a couple of hours, which is useful if the surgery is in the evening so that they can get a good night’s sleep with no pain.
I have benadryl in my allergies list because i get the adverse reaction and hallucinate off like 25 mg of diphenhydramine and i get that same side eye every time. I’m always like “look, give it if I need it, just also have some ativan or something drawn up as well”
i love your videos so much but could you please provide subtitles? im not a native speaker (but i guess the medical experience is an internationally shared one)
I just had septorhinoplasty today. The treatment was appalling!! They did my questioning and pre op in the toilets!! Sent me home because lack of beds ( even though this was pre booked operation) they gave paracetamol … I was supposed to get a nasal spray but the nurse put down for eye drops. When I told her she said oh we can use eye drops on your nose it’s ok !!! NO it’s not. Incompetent! And they have the nerve to go on strike for better pay!
Wait maybe I transitioned wrong. Nobody respects my pronouns here and I don't know why because my pronouns never did anything to y'all. Oh shit I thought it said I was A pre-op, not IN pre-op. Oops
