I just bought a pair of Dansko Shoes in the hopes of relieving some lower back discomfort that I am having at work. I have always worn walking/running shoes without any problems. I should also mention that I am in my first trimester of pregnancy. Doe...

I am just finishing my chemistry & physics courses. The information offered was basic, and its application to anesthesia made it even easier to grasp. Your interests and dislikes sound like mine, and so far I have done very well. If you can do ad...

I too had a lot of questions like that. Five years later I look back and think how irrelevant that was. The questions should focus on things like, "You walk in the room and the patient is unresponsive and frothing at the mouth what do you do" ? I re...
It has been 5 years since I took my boards in Ohio and from what I remember they did not ask a lot of detailed questions regarding diseases, etc. It came down to being able to read the question and decide what sounds the best. Basically, judgement ty...
I am looking for some suggestions for a good board review book, I am just starting my first year as a SRNA. Basically, I am looking for something that has practice questions that I can do while I am studying for exams. A senior student recommended Va...

Reminds me of a case when I was a student doing my psych rotation. We had a patient who was in for depression and expressed desire to commit suicide. Before he went home, it was understand that the family gun was to be removed from the home. The wife...
