Hey there.... Here are some things to do today

Relax and pass some gas,
Bore the most important person in the room til he/she falls asleep
Breathe..... then give another one

Happy Birthday!

And here's a joke to make you smile. :P


She, a surgeon and he, an anesthesiologist, just married in the first night.
She washed herself before going to bed like usually in OR. He said:" Oh, fine, good to have a surgeon as wife, typicall, everytime clean and sterile!"
Next morning she said:" Oh, I have also some compliments for you, typical anesthesiologist, I did not feel anything!"



AND... I wanted to add this one!!


Is there an Anesthetist on this flight ?

Cyprus Air Flight 724 was cruising at thirty-five thousand feet. Everyone had just finished having their lunch. The soft whining of the engines was coaxing passengers to sleep.

Sitting in economy class , row 22 seat B, was an Anesthetist wiggling his toes in an attempt to prevent deep vein thrombosis developing in his feet. As he sipped a complimentary glass of water , a frantic message came over the public address system;

"Anesthetist urgently needed for someone in Business Class!"

Hoping that someone else would get up, our Anesthetist pretended not to hear and looked out of the window. The call came again;

"Please ... we urgently need an Anaesthetist for someone in Business Class "

Perhaps this was serious . Why did they need an Anesthetist ? Maybe it was a cardiac arrest! Trying to recall the ABC's , the Anesthetist got the attention of one of the cabin staff.
They were so relieved;

"Thank you Sir, for volunteering to help us.
There is this gentleman who needs your urgent assistance in Business Class"

He was taken to the Business Class section. Wow! There was so much pace. It was another world compared to the cramped Economy Class. But where was the patient ? There were only a few passengers , and all were asleep except one of them who was reading a newspaper. obody seemed to be in any distress. This was perplexing . Suddenly the man reading the newspaper looked up. He was a rather well fed gentleman and had a grumpy voice;

" Are you an Anesthetist ?"
"Yes ... ?"
"Oh what fortune ! I am an Orthopedic Surgeon , and have been looking for an Anesthetist . So glad that they managed to find one ...."

This was getting frightening. Was this man trying to do surgery in this aircraft ? The nervous Anesthetist managed to ask ;

"How may I help you ?"
"Well I have been trying to read this newspaper ...but the reading light isn't aimed correctly. Can you please adjust it for me ...."

Birthday riddle


Where is the defibrillator ?

There is a Hospital with five operating theatres (operating rooms) arranged in a row and there is a case going on in each one of them.

Each theatre does only one type of speciality and there are five different specialities (Not in any particular order , they are: Orthopedic, Neuro, Trauma, Paediatrics, Cardiac ).

Each theatre has only one Anesthetist ( Chang, John , Mumtaz , Solan , Prasan)

There are five different types of fluids , and each theatre is using a different one at the moment (Saline, Blood, Dextrose, Plasma, Colloid)

There are five different types of airway, and each theatre is using a different one at the moment.( standard tracheal tube, armoured tracheal tube, curved tracheal tube (RAE) , face mask airway, laryngeal mask airway)

There are five defibrillators (defib), one in each theatre. Unfortunately , only one of them is in working order. The other four are not in working . Each one has a different fault ( Broken switch ; No batteries ; Broken paddles ; Missing wires)

Now the question !

A surgeon has collapsed in the coffee room. You must get the defibrillator fast. Which theatre has the working defibrillator ?

Note:

1. Not attempting to save the surgeon is not acceptable.

2. Do NOT use your medical knowledge , e.g. which fluids for a paediatric case etc. This is a riddle , not a medical exam !

3. The solution to the riddle involves no guessing. You can definitely solve it with information provided .

4. There are fifteen clues. Make sure that you have them all if you are printing this page.



Here are the clues :

1. Mumtaz works in the Neuro theatre.
2. Prasan has the defibrillator with the broken switch.
3. Solan is using Dextrose.
4. When looking at the theatres from front, the Paediatric Theatre is on the left of the Trauma Theatre.
5. The Anesthetist in the Paediatric theatre is using Saline.
6. The Anaesthetist using the standard tracheal tube has the defibrillator without wires.
7. The Anaesthetist in the Cardiac theatre is using a Face Mask Airway.
8. The Anesthetist in the middle theatre is infusing plasma to the patient.
9. John is working in the first theatre.
10. The Anesthetist who is using the laryngeal mask airway is working next to the theatre that has the defibrillator with broken paddles
11. The Anesthetist who has the defibrillator with no batteries is working next to the theatre using the face mask airway.
12. The Anesthetist using the armoured tracheal tube is giving blood to the patient .
13. Chang is using the curved tracheal tube.
14. John is working next to the Orthopedic theatre.
15. The Anesthetist using the laryngeal mask airway is working next to the theatre where colloid is being given to the patient.

Which theatre has the working defibrillator !!!!!

Time yourself ...Good Luck to the surgeon.

I have based this riddle on one devised by Albert Einstein in the early 20th century.
He said that 98% of the population would not be able to solve it. Well, you are an Anesthetist , so you must be in the balance 2 %.

This riddle is not very difficult . Don't give up too easily. Using the clues given above, you can definitely work out which operating room has the working defibrillator.
