What do you count as a case?
Doing the case from start to finish? Is induction only a case? Is emergence only a case? Lunch break?
Some classmates counted ANY participation asa case for them. This gives the false impression of # of cases.
We don't check on # of cases when hiring. Only that they have passed boards and if not, they are eligible and have graduated from an accredited school in good standing.
Don't sweat the #'s

Just wondering if anyone here would like to share the # of cases completed by the end of your senior SRNA education..
I'll go first: Graduate in August of this year and have 846 so far. Hope to break 1,000..
Reason I am asking is that some programs barely have over the number required and some programs have substantially more. I have two friends in the central portion of the US that recently broke 1,000 cases and we graduate at the same time.
I realize that this is basically juggling statistics around and alot of variables come into play - how long your CV rotation was, complexity (and usually longer cases) your senior year.....Just wanted to get a feel for the numbers you will graduate with.
Thanks
