Could Anyone help me with a few of these?
1) What is the protocols for intubation vs LMA?
2) True/False- fasting for ops protocol is 6hrs solids, 2hrs fluids?
3) True/False - rapid sequence induction is about putting a pt under rapidly with cricoid pressure/etc, in pts at a higher risk of vomitting, (is there any other indication?)
4) For diabetic Patients - apart from ceasing metformin and starting insulin infusion, is there any other major anesthetic consideration
5) When using the laryngoscope, does one push the epiglottis back with the blade of the laryngoscope?
I know, I know, that yahoo answers isnt Ideal to learn this stuff from, but I get lots of good stuff from time to time here, so pls answer some of the above if you know, instead of ppl telling me not to ask this stuff on yahoo answers.
Any help would be much appreciated!!!!!!
Thanks
