居民的生活

我作为麻醉科住院医师的一天

My typical day as an anesthesia resident begins at 4:45-5:15 am when I wake up. 我住在离医院25分钟路程的地方, so I get ready in the morning and typically plan to arrive at the hospital around 5:45-6:30 am depending on my case complexity for the day.

到达医院的时候, I park in the resident lot and change into OR scrubs in the locker room. I typically get a Vocera battery and log into my Vocera (communication system used by the anesthesia department/nursing staff). 我会查看手术板上的病例分配是否有变化, and head into the anesthesia workroom for my med labels and to get any equipment I may need for my first case.

一旦进入手术室, 我进行机器检查, 为我的病例准备药物, and prepare my airway equipment/any other supplies I may need for the first case. 然后我前往准备区去看我的第一个病人. 通常, 我会在早上7点左右到达准备区, or earlier if I need to perform a procedure such as line/block/neuraxial.

在准备区, 我看到我的病人, perform a medical/anesthetic history and explain the anesthetic plan. 我在病人身上放置监测器，并同意他们进行任何手术. 如果没有静脉注射，我通常会进行静脉注射. 当主治医生到达时, I confirm any changes to the plan (discussed the night before) and then perform any procedures. 等房间准备好了, I perform a “time out” and verify the patient and procedure with the prep nurse/OR nurse and bring the patient to the operating room by 7:30-8 AM based on case start time.

In the OR, after placing monitors on the patient, I induce the patient with my attending. 在气管安全之后, I perform any procedures or additional lines before the patient is positioned, 同时保持血液动力学. I then finish my documentation for the case while managing the patient. 有时, after induction an attending will mention a topic that they would like to teach for the day. 通常在第一个病例期间, the attending will often let me out of the operating room for a quick breakfast/coffee break. Once the operation draws to a close, emergence begins, and I will extubate the patient.

在康复区，我把病人带到他们指定的护士那里. 然后交给病人，完成麻醉记录. 我准备好了下一个病例的用品, 然后回到准备区等待下一个病人. 这个时候, the attending usually will have seen the patient and explained the anesthetic plan, 我会自我介绍，然后把病人带到手术室. 中午，我有半个小时的午休时间.

On Wednesdays, I am typically relieved at 12:40 pm so that I can attend afternoon didactics. 否则, 在我提前办完案子的日子里, 那天，我和董事会负责人核实了一下，看看哪里需要我. 我通常在下午5点左右休息一天. 然后我会查看第二天的日程安排, review the cases and prepare the pre-operative note for each patient for the next day. I usually call the attending to discuss the anesthetic plans and decide on a topic to read on for the following day. I drive home, and the rest of the night is free aside from some pre op reading and board study.
