Bye bye SURGERY, hello ORTHOPEDICS

6 weeks in Surgery Department seems to pass too slowly for me….

Normally, as a position of Clerkship, in OR, we could merely observe, stand beside the operative field, crane for seeing something for hours… but only the green suit of surgeon we can see obviously especially in small field of operation…. It’s somewhat boring… however in case you would prefer being a surgeon or experiencing closer view of operation, asking for the professor to be an assistant in operative field is much more useful.

Being on duty in Trauma room is different. I perceived the Docter feeling, approach the injured, primary survey (A: airway, B: breathing, C: Circulation, D: Detection abnormal neurological sign, E: exposure), resuscitaltion, secondary survey (taking the history and doing complete physical examination from head to toe), record the information, do dressing and stitching the wound, inject drug via intramuscular or intradermal…. Absolutely, It seem to be worthy when you do something yourself, besides this is a good chance to practice and improve your basic operative skill. If you are the one that love American series, Grey’s Anatomy or ER, you must love working here as well.

The examination passed…. It’s not too bad however Surgery has a numerous things to study.
Now …. Surgery is excluded from my choices absolutely…

My new rotation have started already. This week I’m in Orthopedics….
If you have passed Gross anatomy already, you must realize that your smart brain cannot memorize everything especially about your own Anatomy…. I’m the one that is very dull in this subject…

In Orthopedics, I must review lower and upper extremities anatomy; muscle, bone, joint, neurovascular…. Oh my god… I dislike orthopedics as well as Anatomy…I must be for 6 weeks here …T_T

Yesterday I had an physical effeciency test… measure your weight, height, waistline, fat at biceps triceps subscapular suprailliac, lung capacity, cardiovascular response (maximum oxygen uptake), quadriceps power, flexibility….

My height is 155cm, weight 44.5kg, fat is moderate level, lung capacity and Quadriceps power are excellent(wow), cvs response is very low (oh my god!) and flexibility is moderate…
totally my physical efficiency is in level 2 (good) :
(level: 1 excellent, 2 good, 3 moderate, 4 bad, 5 very bad)
wow! It’s not too bad, I suppose….
And you… have you had a test like this??

By the way Most of orthopaedist are sport man, their body shape are very nice with powerful muscle… such a good looking man in my opinion
…
In my class… my professor induce us to care our health by usually exercise. I realize that my physical efficiency is not good enough….
In order to decrease risk of chronic disease in my elderly age, have a good appearance, get good health and firm body shape and muscle, My LAZINESS must be defeated and I must exercise more…. Ok!! It’s time… start now…

Though I quite hate Orthopedics, Being here is a good motivation to make me determine to exercise more…

And you , have you exercised today??
