This is my second day in the ICU. For me, its a really cool place. Very few doctors have a ward all to themselves where they can actually snatch patients from the brink of death, take over most of their vital signs and wait for them to get better.
An ICU doctor is given the an impressive array of tools and human resources that is seldom available to regular doctors to help their patients. We can order the most expensive antibiotics at the stroke of a pen, ventilate our patients with machines worth as much a a brand new car, and get at least three well trained health care professionals to take care of our patients in day.
There's tons to learn. Each and every patient is different and a template management seldom fits everyone, if anyone at all.
Hope I have an educational posting
