It's the final countdown...

   The end of another semester is near. This semester has gone by extremely fast, thank goodness. We have finally started to learn about anesthesia and the things related to anesthesia, so these are exciting times. We are in the middle of learning the check-off of our anesthesia machine at the moment. We also presented posters at the scholarship symposium for school. We did a poster comparing the speed of intubation between fiberoptic and GlideScopes. The articles we reviewed said that the GlideScope was the fastest way to intubate a difficult patient....just in case you wanted to know! We are getting ready to take our final in 2 weeks, then the dreaded summer semester comes! This is supposed to be the hardest semester of school, so yeeeeehaw! After the summer we will start our clinical rotations and then it gets real. So I'm going to try to enjoy the next several weeks as much as possible because free time will be limited in my future. So, everyone enjoy your time!
