Critical Care...depressing!!


my 1 week attachment on critical care is over!! i guess this will be the easiest attachment ever in clinical school here. it's onli a week of tutorials and stuff on anaesthesia, emergency medicine and intensive care. the great thing bout the run is tat there is no assignments to do...and no end of run assessment!!! how awesome can it be? too bad tat it's onli for a week. will be much better if we haf 2 weeks on tat ;p

however, the intensive care is somehow depressing, ppl stayed there without knowing when will they recover or even a chance of recovering.

wad's the prognosis of the patient? "we'll see how he/she does"

wad can we do bout it? "there's nothing much we can do but just to give supportive care"

well, tat's wad intensive care unit does..to give support to the critically ill patients and finger crossed and hope tat they will recover somehow..

attachment with anaesthesist in the theatre is quite fun. but most of the time sitting there n get bored while waiting for the surgeries to be over. surprisingly tat all anaesthesists whom i followed did not play sudoku while waiting. haha...i was tempted to play bejeweled in my pda while waiting. it was a nice experience after all!

anyway...the easy run is over and doin psych run next. will be attached to emergency psychiatry for 2 weeks. tat sounds interesting to me. will see how it goes. there r so many holidays to look forward to: easter weekend, a week holiday in april, ANZAC day...so i guess the run will be quite fun with so many holidays in btw :D

oh...and i'm goin back to kch from 9th june til 28th june!!! n hau chun they all coming over to kch for a visit around tat time :)
