    RT of 12 years here. I have to say it's daunting looking to become a CAA after graduating so long ago. 1 year post bacc + 2.5 years schooling and doing well enough on the mcat to be a competitive candidate. Seems really outside of intelligence range honestly...but I already do a lot of what you do: Place A-lines, intubate/extubate, manage ventilation/oxygenation, respond to codes for all ages...seems a logical next step in my career but $$$$$$, college tuition is nooooo joke! Amazing videos though. I really enjoyed this one.

    How often do you feel you have to manage risky and fear-inducing situations? Do CAAs confront challenging situations that could be career ending with some regularity, or better stated, are situations like these regularly a concern? Do you have much of an option to work where this is not the case, or is it inevitable? Thanks!

    • @Anesthesiasal
      @Anesthesiasal  Рік тому +7

      Not too often. Most of the time, you know your patients medical history, the risk of the surgery and can prepare for situations prior to starting a case. The frequency of challenging situations depend on what hospital and patient demographic. Trauma centers and sicker patients more often require higher acuity. If you work at an outpatient center taking care of healthy patients, the risk for adverse events can still happen but it is minimal.
