the 100% directionless thread

What kind of regional blocks are you doing and how do you guys become qualified to do that?
Axial brachial plexus blocks are what we are cleared to do. Only flight team performs them as they have our ultrasound units right now. We do cadaver lab and several rotations through anesthesia locally to learn how to do them, only with medical director approval of personnel once trained. To date all we've done are digital blocks in the field.

Almost a year in the class? How many days a week do you go to class?
 
When it's the day after leg day and you can feel yourself losing the ability to walk during the shift so your hoping for a quiet day, but then you run 9 calls in 12 hours....Oh plus your in the bariatric ambulance because the reserve you were in broke the previous shift so you're trying to figure out how to work a completely different cot than the rest of the fleet, fun day lol
