Have you ever wondered WHY? Or maybe you just want to know EVERYTHING about Oxygen? Came across this comprehensive 400+ pages free pdf from retired anesthesiologist Helge Opdahl. www.theo2comp.com His Norwegian paperback has been a favourite for decades! #ansky #Anesthesia #EMedsky #MedSky #emimcc

What would you do to reduce #LookAlikeDrugs in #anesthesia? 1: Consistent use of ISO/ASTM-standard color from outer packaging to final product? 2:Transferable labels? 3: Generic name most prominent? 4: Red cap/label and warning on NMBA? Other things? Good and bad examples shown. #ansky

Pneumothorax in children - X-ray? We are having a trauma simulation this week, with a child around 2 years. Is there anyone who has or knows where to find a chest radiograph of a child with left-sided PTX, both initial and with a chest tube inserted? Nothing in Radiopedia....

Low dose suxamethonium is well known "last resort" for rapid treatment of #laryngospasm. Is there any evidence at all for the use of #rocuronium in lower dose than intubationdose 1,0-1,2 mg/kg? emergencycarebc.ca/clinical_res... suggests 0,2 mg/kg,but without references. Anyone? #AirwaySky #AnSky

"Home made" quiz game for my Nurse Anesthetist students today, always a success, and an easy go-to when my lessons were a bit bad planned 😜Empty vials/ampoules as game piece makes it extra fun. "I want to be remi!" #Ansky
