Anesthesia

We are finally able to give our patients anesthesia. Of course I was nervous about being set free to do this but when it came time to actually do it I felt ok. My mockboard patient came back to finish 2 quads and he was the first one I gave LA to. I did an IA, long buccal, PSA, MSA, and and ASA. And....he got numb!! I was so happy I did it right. Granted we have our instructors standing over us but I was happy it worked. I also got my patient numb last week and it went well. I still shake a little bit but I think it's getting better. I have been really trying to pass off some PE's too and I think I only have 2 more left for this semester. I want to get those out of the way!

  1. Doesn't it make you feel good he got numb! I sure hope the shakiness goes away soon--for the both of us!
