OT




I love OT

OT? = operation theater

The environment. Ambiance. Is Cool, Tranquil, Calm.

Lately not much surgical cases unless if there is visiting Surgeon from Kuching. So I am more than happy if there is case like abscess for I+D. Even it is small, something that you can do under LA, I will even do it in OT. Because I like OT and the assistant is much better.

The staffs are nice and friendly. Helpful.

Probably the only time I talk the most is in OT. With them. I rarely have the conversation that is NOT medically or work related with other nurses in the ward or ER, even to my colleagues! I think because when I was at somewhere else, I was easily annoyed. When I am annoyed, I don't talk to people. When I am not happy, I don't talk. Silent treatment. Once I acted cold, it was difficult to act nice again. When I try too, I feel disgusted to myself, for "acting" to be nice when I am not. Why la. I myself not sure about it.

Why is it OT different? Why the staffs receive different treatment? Even when they screw things up which I believe very rare, I forgive them easily? Is it because of the OT? Why double standard?


Will I hate OT if I come back to SGH? Will it be the same?

Favourite patient??

It is so not right to categorize your patients. Difficult? Manjalitis? Kurang Kasih Sayang? Compliant? "That" patient? Ya I know. And I do know that we are not suppose to favor patient as well. Because we are professional who work with good etiquette; not to be bias or biatch. However, when I have someone whom I have been managing for quite sometimes, and he has been a very good patient in term of compliant and courtesy (plus cute =P), I can't stop myself from having this feeling. Feeling? Feeling that I'm going to miss him so much. Knowing that my ward rounds will be dull without him. I am talking about an old gentleman, who has been in the hospital more or less A YEAR!!!..Yup..He has a TB and for his case it is tricky to manage. As if it has been mutated to a new strain. Because of that, he has been in the hospital (Kapit and Sibu) for nearly 1 year. If you meet him, he looks like a very healthy strong Ibanese. He doesn't look sick. But...Sigh.. Always tease hi...

first of all.... I'M BACK!!!! ! The beginning of the new posting aka first day in hell. It was suck as expected. The tagging days just horrible. Tiring mentally and physically and i couldn’t wait for this to end. Anyway, what am i talking about. Its hell. Hell is not good. Always bad. In the nutshell, if i can put in 1 word to describe my life in paed for the past 10 days as tagger, the word is HELL. some of my colleagues are very efficient and nice to work with. Some are REALLY slow. But who am i too judge. I am still junior to them. My medical knowledge has evaporated since i left the posting. I couldn’t remember how to interpret the ABGs and the most common ABG abnormalities i found when i was in medical were either overventilated or metabolic acidosis. I was told by my MO to buck up my ABG knowledge because it was unacceptable since i am now a 4 th poster. Which by right, according to the old system, i should be a MO by now. Damn. And blur is still my middle ...
