A lot of that dust, most in fact, comes from the paper surgical drapes. Just look at the air filter on the back of the monitors, and you'll see nothing but...

I think this whole issue needs to have some sort of intervention and then outcome based study results showing an effect if some intervention occurs. Is anyone...

In case anyone has missed this, I think it is a very helpful and interesting contribution - positive pressure helps when the airway is stenosed. I gather ...

Below Joseph posted a paper on spinal for lap. CHE in 50 pts. compared to GA: all 50 pts with spinal did well and had better postop. pain control. I have never...

here's my 2 cents input first what do you call "lap" ??? I guess, but would you please write in plain and understandable English, there's a couple of non...

Juan,  Why do you turn the airway over to a nurse who isn't properly trained in airway management? Tht alone seems wrong to me. Far far FAR too often...
Just to be clear. The nurses with whom I work are very good at IVs so I don't worry about IV starts. As a rural/solo provider of services, I have also...
I agree individual judgement must used. However, you did imply in your original post the pre-IV placement of a supraglottic airway is not "defensible" if a...
