Clinical Topics

Published

I would like to request that there be more clinical topics on this forum or else a separate place be set up for students or those who are considering becoming a CRNA.

Clinical anesthesia is exciting, interesting and requires constant learning. Sharing experiences among practitioners has always been one of the best educational modes for me.

While I have enjoyed participating on this forum, I am bored at reading the same type of posts day after day. I have received private messages from others who feel the same way. Before I get nasty messages telling me that I can delete or choose not to read the ones that don't interest me--believe me, I understand that--let's try to change the focus a little and see what happens.

Yoga CRNA

I could not agree more and was thinking the same thing earlier today. I am a CRNA student right now and would like a place to ask questions about things that I am going to run into in clinicals or problems I am having.

However before I got into school this site was very helpful. Maybe we can set up seperate forums for practicing CRNA's/RRNA's for clinical questions and another site for undergrad students, political issues and questions about school.

Good Point Yoga..I always enjoy your posts!

Just like it was a year ago or so. Please feel free to put up the topics. That will help train the focus more of this site and make it more beneficial. The way that it is supposed to be.:)

Yoga CRNA

I agree. While I am not a CRNA or even a SRNA/RRNA/Whatever-RNA yet, that is my ambition and I enjoy reading the clinical discussions. I find the application discussions interesting as well, but it seems that those threads tend to be more repetitive whereas there are always new clinical scenarios to discusss.

I tried to get this clinical ball rolling a while back and no one took bait. I look forward to this new agenda.

Why can't there be a separate forum for people interested in anesthesia?

Yoga CRNA

I am not a CRNA or student yet, but I agree. A simple search of the previous posts addresses 95% of current repeat posts. There are over 100 pages of threads. I am know many answers to questions are there. Laziness needs to be superseeded by desire to find the information you seek.

I agree, I will take this post to the staff discussion. While I don't think the owner would consider a forum exclusively for CRNA wannabe's, perhaps there could be one for advanced practice nursing wannabes. I bet the ARNP forum has the same 90% of posters who are working to get in. You have a great idea Yoga!

Any ideas of what the the forum should be called? Here's mine:

Future Advanced Practice Nurse Discussion Forum

I don't know, the preqs are so different for NP vs CRNA that most people will come to the CRNA forum anyway. So you figure he won't go for a pre-CRNA (which 99% of these postings are anyway), do you think he'd go for a Clinical Anesthesia forum for SRNAs or CRNAs for topics of only clinical anesthesia?

Thanks for hearing me out. Something's gotta give here.

RN29306 is right, I don't think many of those pre-CRNA's who are not in CRNA school will visit that Future Advanced Practice Forum. I think that everyone would be surprised at how much the "Clinical Anesthesia Forum" proposed by the previous poster would be used.

There is a graduate degree nursing forum....maybe we could direct those questions there.....Or have a sub-section for CRNA students.
