Ep 218: Respiratory Q&A Test Prep

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?
