carotid endarterectomy
What are your techniques for CEAs? We only do general here. Occasionally we put on cerebral oximetry. But in the books they mention so many monitors available. I'm curious as to what other places do? Do people use these monitors? (MCA dopplers.. jugular bulbs sats etc..). If you do them awake, do you just do superficial cervical block? Any sedation? How often are you doing neuro/strength exams? What are your extubation techniques? (Source: Student Doctor Network)
