From my 4 weeker in anesthesia I have found you learn little from attendings. THe majority you figure out yourself or you learn from fellow residents. What about a perma-sticky thread on secrets, shortcuts, mnenomics and such we learn from now on? Could be procedures, drug calcs, everyday setups etc?

I label my syringes and screw on the needles everyday during the cases. Same goes for the IV set-ups sans fluids (caps left on the ends). The next morning: 10 more minutes of sleep.

So if this is the worldest stupid idea, feel free to flame me. Just remember Snoops got my back!
 
Thanks Vent, hope this will be good for all.

I have one week left of my 4 weeker then 1 1/2 years away from the bosom of anesthesia. A sad day next Friday.
