You know what separates “nurse near the code cart looking concerned” from someone anesthesia actually wants in the room?   Being able to mentally walk through an RSI before the meds are even drawn up.   💭 Why are we intubating? (Not everyone with BiPAP needs a tube.) 💉 What drugs are likely coming — and what will they do to this patient’s BP? 💡 Is my IV push line clean? Do I have flushes, suction, end-tidal ready? 👀 Who’s watching sats and MAP while they’re focused on cords?   📦 What’s the post-intubation plan — sedation, vent, pressors, documentation?   This isn’t about doing anesthesia’s job.   It’s about making the room safer, because you actually understand what’s happening.   Comment LEARN if you’re ready to learn more about what to focus on in the ICU to make you a more prepared future CRNA!   #nurses #nurselife #ignurses #thecrnaclub #srna crna dnpcrna crnaschool rntosrna srnatocrna crnajourney futurecrna nurse nursesofinstagram nursingstudent anesthesia anesthetist anest...
