Count to 10 - Anaesthetic Primary Podcast

In today's final 'Equipment and Safety' topic I cover the much-loved topic of Ultrasound with a small part on neuromonitoring (to add onto Ep38) with a focus on SedLine.  First, we go through the principles of USS (01:18) followed by a review on the mode of doppler (14:58). I thought I would touch on SedLine today because we have previously reviewed BIS but now this is becoming increasingly popular and may even be asked in the future (20:49). There are only 2 SAQs to go through at the end (25:48). As always thanks for listening!

Time for another 'Live Practice Viva'. Thanks to Robbie for doing this and Derek for coming back to be a examiner!! I hope you get some technical and non-technical skills from the video. As per previous episodes we covered four topics which were: Desflurane (06:23), Phenylephrine (011:23), Haemostasis (16:23) and Lignocaine (21:23).  We then go through some feedback. Hope you guys enjoy and thanks for watching! As always if you have any feedback let me know at anirudh@sweetdreamsanaesthesia.com

In today's Part 2 of 'Equipment and Safety' I cover "Suction & Scavenging, Electrical Safety & Diathermy." This was a much longer episode then anticipated! I start first with reviewing suction (01:06) then scavenging (08:23) with an additional part on environmental impact (14:53). Then we go into detail regarding electrical safety in the theatre (19:29). To end our LO's I look at how diathermy works (34:55) and LASER (41:55). Luckily there weren't many SAQs to cover today (47:55) but they all have low pass rates. Thanks for listening!

Today I give my quick thoughts on the most recent SAQ paper. I look at trends in the new, the repeat and the 're-word' questions. Well done to everyone who sat and for those sitting hopefully this gives you some insight into what to expect. Thanks for listening!

Today I am joined by Maurice, now a retired learning and development facilitator with ANZCA. We are releasing our newly created education tool "Conversation Starters in the Operating Theatre" available on the website. We start are conversation today talking about the concept of a 'curious learner' (07:56). Then we move on to discuss how we can suspend judgment when it comes to teaching (11:10) and how to make the trainee-supervisor work well with the aid of FAST goals (17:09). Finally, we talk about 6 learning strategies the strategies shared by The Learning Scientists.
