I had a 20-something guy with +++ induction and maintenance requirements sit bolt upright and broadcast to a full PACU,
"Whoa! I've done some crazy shit in my time but that was fahhhhbulous."
Best part was he did it in the voice of Crush from Finding Nemo.

Our old green masks + cleaning solution smelled like Canadian Tire.
Our new brightly coloured plastic ones? I dunno, maybe Lego.

The Calverley oxygen knob is a great example of human factors in medicine. Controls for nitrous oxide and air were not only different shapes but they were recessed relative to 02. All colour-coded, although US and ISO coding systems vary. Now it's screens 🙄

Always thought of us as more Dudley than Snidely, but with the tariffs and 51st state nonsense I can twirl my moustache.

I associated our overdosing of rocuronium to the "aerosol preventing" intubations of the COVID era. In Boston, it seems it was sugammadex.
Just for fun, ask a trainee or colleague for the ED95 of roc.

On the morning of 1917-12-06 the Mont Blanc, a French ship laden with munitions, collided with the Imo in Halifax Harbour. The resulting explosion killed 1,782 and injured nearly 9000 more.

My father was an aerospace engineer who was a contractor on the shuttle program.
Udvar-Hazy took me right back to being a 7 yo flying model rockets with his Dad.
Priceless.

“Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie,
In Flanders fields.”

Not sure I’m ready for this but it’s November in Canada. Can’t say it’s unexpected.

Ketamine did, however, increase the incidence of side effects.

Happy World Anesthesia Day.

Small effect size but interesting, especially the effect on bleeding - transfusion.
Big cases first?

Canadian anesthesiologists doing their part at work.
Canadians as a whole have some work to do.
