In December, I served on a medical mission trip to Honduras. I had the privilege of working alongside world-class surgeons and surgical teams from across the country. It was my first time traveling overseas on my own, it was my first time serving on a medical mission trip, and it was an incredible, humbling experience. This is the group of scrub techs and nurses that I worked with for the week.

Hospitals and long-term care facilities are entrusted with the care of people who cannot care for themselves for one reason or another. In a perfect world the ratio of caregivers to patients would be one-to-one. But the world is not perfect. Caregivers care for multiple patients including some who should not reposition themselves without assistance.

I’m not sure how other surgeons do their breast cases, but I wanted to share how ours are done & how I prepare for my breast cases. The RNs have to write down a lot of information when a specimen is handed off. Prior to the case I take my sticker sheet & write on the back of it so that I can just fill in the blanks while she is telling us the information we need & I’m able to double-check it & verify that it’s correct when the RN is taking the specimen.

Phosphate is crucial for cellular/energy metabolism, bone integrity, and various enzymatic processes. Hypophosphatemia is classified as mild (2.5-3 mg/dL), moderate (1-2.5 mg/dL), or severe (<1 mg/dL, up to 30% all-cause mortality!) based on serum concentration. Mechanisms of hypophosphatemia include transcellular shifting (refeeding syndrome, insulin administration, alkalosis), renal losses (primary hyperparathyroidism, diuretics, Fanconi syndrome, proximal tubular dysfunction), poor GI abs

The normal aortic valve is trileaflet and comprised of the non, left, and right coronary cusps. Quadricuspid aortic valve ( QAV ) is an extremely rare malformation occurring in only 0.008% of autopsies and 0.043% of cases examined through echocardiography. Hurwitz and Roberts proposed seven classes of QAV based on the arrangement and relative sizes of the cusps; Nakamura et al. created a simplified classification system based on the position of the extra cusp.

Bronchoscopy is an investigative or therapeutic procedure that involves inserting an instrument into the lungs via the airway and is often performed under anesthesia. Rigid bronchoscopy generally warrants general anesthesia, while flexible bronchoscopy can be carried out under sedation supplemented with topical anesthesia [1]. It is critical for the practicing anesthetist to use the best method for each individual patient [2].

Unilateral cardiogenic pulmonary edema (CPE) accounts for ~2% of pulmonary edema cases and is classically caused by posterior papillary muscle rupture, resulting in acute, severe, eccentric mitral regurgitation. Flow is directed specifically to the right-sided pulmonary veins. This, in turn, overwhelms the lymphatic capacity of the right lung and results in lateralized pulmonary edema as seen in this chest x-ray.
