Anesthesia Compilation Part 1

  • It’s Compilation Thursday! Every week I’ll post a few of my favorite videos along with some behind the scenes Glaucomtrivia
    00:00 - Anesthesia On/Off Switch
    Most of my operating room themed videos come from real life experiences I’ve had in my career. As a 3rd year med student, I was assigned to do 6 weeks of vascular surgery (or hell, as I like to call it). At the end of a particularly long case involving suturing every blood vessel in the entire body, the surgical fellow was growing impatient with the speed in which the anesthesiologist was waking the patient up from a 7 hour case. The surgeon made a grave error he hopefully never made again. He asked, “what’s taking so long?” This prompted a particularly menacing drape glare from the anesthesiologist, who then replied “you know I don’t have an on/off switch back here.” We all laughed. 10 years later I turned this interaction it into a skit which is now my most popular video to date.
    00:46 - Surgery Add On
    I try my best to avoid tired medical joke cliches that everybody has heard a million times. However, some universal truths are unavoidable: Radiologists being dark adapted, slightly anti-social doctors, neurosurgeons never seeing their families, and anesthesiologists doing puzzles to pass the time in the OR. The only thing I regret from this video is the surgeon not asking for more add ons in exchange for the Dell Sudoku Spectacular, a puzzle book I found at my local gas station. He could have gotten much more, it was not a fair trade.
    02:00 - Surgery and Anesthesiology go to Therapy
    I love making therapy videos. The psychiatrist looks and sounds like a real therapist, but he is pretty terrible at his job. It’s what you’d expect from an ophthalmologist acting like a psychiatrist with zero psychiatric training. The charge nurse hat steals the show here. I found that hat at my local surgery center. There were about 30 different flower hats. I picked the most flowery. It contrasts well with the prickly demeanor of your average charge nurse. I try to work it into as many skits as possible. I feel most powerful when I pretend to be the charge nurse bossing myself around in a pretend operating room.
    03:56 - Anesthesia Helps Out Emergency Medicine
    This is part 2 of the emergency department turning doctors into different kinds of doctors. I am a big horror fan, so a fair number of my skits have horror undertones. My empty clinic at night sets the perfect stage for these. This skit idea came from an anesthesiology follower on twitter who posted about getting pulled into a trauma, then looking around and realizing the EM doctor who asked for help was nowhere to be found. The patient was now his. People in medicine have the best stories.

    Used to be an OR Assistant in the ASC at Stanford about 25 years ago. After this one case finished, surgeon had left the room and Pt was waking up, she started moaning and saying "Oh, Keith, Keith. I love you...blah, blah, blah." Everyone still in the room snickered and thought it was real funny. Everyone except anesthesia, who acted more surprised and shocked. As she was leaving the room with the PT, anesthesia turned back toward the the Tech and I and whisper, "Her husbands name is Fred! I met him in preop!"

I have no patience to update my collegue who is playing candy crush on the ongoing procedure because he or she's too unprofessional to put their phone away and actually check on their patient and the ongoing operation. I know that a Traverso-Longmire that's going well is long and boring for the anaesthesiologist, but this still pisses me off because I image the family of my patient expecting him or her to be well taken care of during the procedure and they surely aren't picturing that.

      I believe it’s to block the *patient’s* view, not anesthesia. You know… in case they wake up. (Anesthesia is with the patient’s head while the surgeon’s got the body ;) Wouldn’t want the patient getting a glimpse of the internal remodeling being done by surgery. Or by the OB/GYN making that cut across the belly to fish that baby (babies?!?) out during a C-section. It’s all a bit too traumatizing! Especially when heavily medicated.

    A good anesthesiologist will follow along with the surgery and know when the end is approaching.

      Absolutely not. Anesthesia has much more important things to focus on. Like keeping the patient near death without letting him die so the surgeon can play god. It’s up to Surgery to keep Anesthesia abreast of the progress so he can begin bringing the patient back to life at the appropriate time.
      It’s all Surgery’s fault.
