the joy of patients with low BMI

Mat helped supervise anesthesia for a 7 day old baby today and it went well.  There are many pediatric cases, so it's good he is planning a career in peds anesthesia.  I spent much of the morning with Willy working on a pain management program for the hospital and taught him how to do intercostal blocks on a patient post-thoracotomy.  There are no catheters for epidural or paravertebral.  Intercostals are quite easy when the BMI is 20:-)
