Airways; A little less foreign
Last day of anesthesia. It took 7 weeks and I finally feel more confident about the airway. Granted, I still have a lot to learn and I am not going to get difficult airways, but I know how to ventilate and intubate properly. I intubated someone this morning and did everything myself, from pre-oxygenation, bagging, to tubing. It was incredible to see how far I have come. Its an adrenaline pumping couple minutes and one day, I will be doing it alone as an attending in a much more emergent setting.
My entire career will be spent improving on these skills. I am very fortunate to have gotten a wonderful teacher who taught me a solid foundation on saving someone's life.
