Show Notes

We’re shifting gears a bit in this episode by focusing on the examination side of anesthesia and hosting our first ever Q&A episode. Since students take a lot of tests in anesthesia school and CRNAs are prepping for the CPC examination, testing is a critical part of the profession.

As educators, Jeremy and Sass both write a lot of test questions so they’ll share their experience from that side of the test-taking process. They'll also give you methods to analyze the questions in a way that can help you narrow down to the correct answer. Hey...it's Q&A day, so let us know what you think.

 

Here are some of the things you’ll learn on this show:

  • Which measure is an accurate indicator of preoxygenation? (3:04)
  • Which effect explains the right work shift in the oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve? (6:15)
  • Which factors cause a left work shift in the oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve? (10:14)
  • Hypoxic Pulmonary Vasoconstriction is inhibited by…? (12:58)
  • What is the infrared wavelength measured by pulse oximetry? (17:20)
  • Which inspiratory muscles are involved with supplemental inspiratory effort during times of respiratory distress? (23:09)
