Anaesthesia

Harini cam telebey excited when i went into the induction room (the room where the anesthesiologist prepare the patient before entering the OT) cuz before this i went in there with no knowledge of wat so ever about anesthetic. But last sem (since we just finished our exam) we all learn about anesthesia la analgesia etc. those stuff lor.. so i went rushing towards the anesthesiologist meja thing where got all those drugs we learned last sem. so cool!!!

1. Etomidate (IV anesthestic)
2. Propofol (IV jugak)
3. Parecoxib @ Dynastat (salah satu COX2 inhibitors yang given IV.satu lagi x ingat nama.. ada dua je yg Dr kasik IV. yang lain kasi orally)
4. Metoclopramide @ Primperan (anti emetic a.k.a anti muntah)
5. Ketamine (ni yang side effect kasik nightmare.. wuhu! and kasik effect dissociative anaesthesia, meaning cam as if the brain and the spinal cord is separated. orang tu nampak awake but the patient cant feel anything. diguna dgn banyak in countries like africa cuz of its cheapness)
6. Suxamethonium (depolarizing muscle relaxant)
7. Marcain @ Bupivacaine (local anesthetic)
8. Levobupivacaine (same gak rasanye.miahaha)
9. Lignocaine @ Lidocaine (local anesthetic jugak~)
10. Desflurane (inhalational anesthetic. this one expensive worr)

see. menarik siot!! ughh obviously i didnt spend 5 hours just exploring the drugs.. after that, me and Hui Ting watched 5 surgeries. yes tiring but ok la once you get used to it~ (kepada yang pernah mengalami je akan memahami..adeih)

1st and 5th --> Caesarian section. for the 1st time i watched a TRANSVERSE one. before this was breech presentation. so Dr. Lau (o&g surgeon) just terbalikkan the baby before taking her out~

2nd --> Inguinal Hernia by Dr. Ng. 1st impression, i thought it would be boring, but after observing, susah jugak nak buat. u gotta make sure u dont accidentally cut the kid's vas deferens la bla3. huhu~ 45mins spent on a 4 year-old's hernia T_T

3rd --> TURP (trans urethric resection of prostate) done by Dr.Liong (sape kenal dia tau ar how go0d he is.. i mean how 'go0d' the hospital pay him..haha!!) this one was a bit urm.. disturbing... (sila search sendiri and read on how TURP is done.. horror......)

then we went for lunch! ok today was a bit shocking cuz usually the hospital fo0d kinda sux. but today sum how ada nasi kandar T_T sedap gile!

4th --> join Dr.Deong for otitis media~ haha! i actually saw the ear drum bulging out and not translucent!!! isk..
