Today the surgical society ran an anaesthetics session. We had a lecture on the history of anaesthesia, "an introduction to field anaesthesia in africa", and (the fun part) a practical airway management session.
We got to play with endotracheal tubes, oropharyngeal airways, nasopharyngeal airways, and the fabulous ambu bag. LOVE IT!!!!!
Unfortunately, I only managed to intubate the stomach in the adult dummy....But I rocked out on paeds.....
And the anaesthetists were super nice and said we could come and hang out with them in theatre any time!
So, a good day.

Anaesthetists rock!! The field anaesthetics in Africa sounds awesome...
cool!
always fun to have a practical session, makes a chinge from the lectures.
we had a c-spine type thing from one of those societies that was pretty exciting to do.
That's so cool! I've only seen such stuff in pictures and from the top of the lecture hall so far...
