You know you're in the right specialty when you spend a friday morning discussing and looking at the workings of an anaesthetics machine and drawing diagrams of sevofluorane vaporisers and that is a very enjoyable time

#*insert the gary barlow this is my idea of a very nice day out meme*#honestly i am aware how this sounds but its just SO COOL like how we just take over someones breathing #and how the machine gets the right concentration of volatile into the circuit #dont get me started on how sats probes work i read about it the other day #and its just so clever??? how it adjusts for so many variables #and why its only actually accurate above 75% because they had to calibrate them on actual human volunteers #and its kind of unethical to desaturate them to the point theyd probably go into respiratory arrest #anyway ill just be over here trying not to monologue at people about how cool my job is #medicine #medblr #anaesthetics #help im a doctor
