CerebralCRNA

A unit of blood at times in the OR and the ER can be infused as fast as five minutes, that is why they make the Belmont and also Level I infusers. Also, the smaller the radius of the catheter will result in slower flow as flow is proportional to 1/r...

Cali just opted out! :)

What educational value does this posts provide? Please someone tell me??? Again, someone on here just to bash CRNAs and being allowed to do so.

Can I ask why you are curious? I will tell you that there are many many many facilities in which CRNAs are the sole anesthesia providers.

Well I certainly am not a swinger...... it is obvious that this is a first post made to insult CRNAs by possibly an AA or an MD.

Again, total nonsense.......................... Who is moderating here again? Wow, I am speechless............

If that is true then people who are not CRNAs should not "confront" CRNA posters who try and give their experience and information. The plural of anecdote does not equal data. How in the world can someone who does not administer anesthesia give the...

It won't be impossible, but you have to get your climbing boots on because you have a higher mountain to climb. You will have to retake the science courses, you will have to ace the BSN courses, and you will have to score well on your GRE. But the...

Here is a question, How often do you let someone who has been only driving for a year drive you brand new corvette?

Are you serious????

My, my, my...... how can this statement be made in a CRNA forum.... CRNAs place them as well.

On the other hand, I use 20-40 of sux on the floor when necessary. It is much easier to intubate a "non-moving" target and the duration of action of that dose is extremely short. It all depends on your comfort level and of course your assessment of ...

What type of airway did you use? You stated a BLS airway, what type?

You took the words right out of my mouth, you can't be a CRNA without the RN :)

My advice, alternate each case ---Miller--Mac--Miller--Mac---etc Get proficient with both blades and use alternative methods to intubate. Don't let your first time with a blade or device be under emergent conditions.

Nimbex for president!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Do you really want me to post many, many, many instances of poor outcomes involving just an anesthesiologist? Poor outcomes happen with both types of provider but thankfully they are a rare, rare event as you should well know if you read the ASPF si...

Job well done!!

Then how can you comment on areas like you have before with credibility if you are not experienced in the field??

So, since is was Dr. Peter Warheit (as stated in several weblinks), are those questions still valid??......... or do they only pertain to CRNAs???

John, Working in the Springs as a CRNA does happen, you are not counting the eye centers and outpatient surgery centers in addition to Evans Army Community Hospital and the Air Force Academy Hospital. There are jobs all over the state. Canon City Pu...

You are mistaken Sir................ When I live in CO, I worked at St. Anthony's, St. Joseph's, Porter Adventist and Parker Hospital routinely. Please post correct and fully researched information. Working as a CRNA is very profitable in the Denver...

do you guys even have a crna moderator? all crna programs are now master's degree programs, it has been that way for many years now. one of the reasons this forum is terrible is that non-crnas are moderating and censoring this forum and putting out i...

Just remember DNP does NOT equal PhD.................
