  2. Common practice in the USA

    deepz replied to dzenkipenki's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Esp about AAs. We'll pay the freight to ship you a few hundred. Two especially!

  4. Is the AA profession gaining ground?

    deepz replied to Alpha13's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Less 'you.' More 'I.'

  5. SRNA clinical tactics

    deepz replied to susswood's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Yes, Loisane, it still happens, whenever I have students around. As Dylan said, We all got to serve somebody....... Or, was it the guy from Silence of the Lambs ....

  6. Is the AA profession gaining ground?

    deepz replied to Alpha13's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Exactly their title: AA - Assistant-- but they are so needy, so hungry for acceptance and recognition and validation that they glom on to the term all the same, to inflate their image. It's just one...

  7. Is the AA profession gaining ground?

    deepz replied to Alpha13's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Patently false, sir ... unless one counts 'everything that a CRNA does' as only those few poor brow-beaten and dumbed-down CRNAs whom your notorious boss hires for his group after telling them at...

  8. Is the AA profession gaining ground?

    deepz replied to Alpha13's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    This is exactly on target, Nitecap, and is what escapes many. As is often said, the first two years of an orificethesiolgy residency are largely spent trying to teach the doctors to act like nurses....

  11. Hollywood movie called "awake"

    deepz replied to crna2bee's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    It is utter nonsense to categorically state that BIS 'does not work.' In my own hands (few thousand cases) and in the vast clinical experience of many others, BIS does work and can be a valuable...

    deepz replied to HeadRx's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Perhaps you are confusing CRNAs with MDAs in your speculations here. Certain MDAs do pay those rates, those whose policy also covers other practitioners under them. In forty years I have never paid...

    deepz replied to HeadRx's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Not so. 3-8 k depending on which State.

  14. Hollywood movie called "awake"

    deepz replied to crna2bee's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Same thing happened way back when Robin Cooke's COMA came out. Let's hope people don't restrict their sources of medical info to movies only! Look at how bizzarely CUCKOO'S NEST portrayed

  15. Politics, our business, and this year's speaker

    deepz replied to macanes's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Maybe, although some years our PAC outspends theirs ... but, Z, they've never had a US President speak at their A$A confab, have they? All other considerations, and your personal, obviously strong...

  16. Politics, our business, and this year's speaker

    deepz replied to macanes's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Message? Basically it says to the A$A, "We got the Big Dog. You don't." Could it possibly be any more plain?

    deepz replied to TheLemur's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Three words: Volume, volume, and then there's ... volume. Go where you get lots of cases, preferably of all kinds, ideally with every extra: lines, blocks, etc. Your education truly begins as a CRNA...

  21. ASA's response to Grey's Anatomy

    deepz replied to no-pain's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    I bow to your obvious expertise on THAT subject.

  22. ASA's response to Grey's Anatomy

    deepz replied to no-pain's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    As an Army-trained Vietnam-era CRNA myself I have no necessity to whitewash this. Two CRNAs' names are on The Wall. CRNAs, not MDAs. You want to know who's out there in the forefront?...

  23. Unresolved post-op tachy in c-section pt.

    deepz replied to epiphany's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Yes. Seems like a lot of immediate post-op C-Section moms do exhibit a tach for no apparent good reason. Yes, true, they do often get some ephedrine after an SAB, or show a strong sympathetic...

  24. STAT intubation advice PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!

    Wow, Milo, you have received some great practical advice here. Impressive the cumulative input us folks can generate on this BB when we put out minds to it.

    deepz replied to miloisstinky's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    "...what the doc will need"....!!!!! This is a CRNA forum -- i.e., for Certified Registered NURSE Anesthetists (and students and various wannabees), clinical specialists who intubate every day all by...
