I have such an appreciation for intensivists who value what the nurses see and do.

Eddie, as far as I know, this is the *one and ONLY* video of its kind on Youtube (a day in the life of an intensivist). As a recent college grad aspiring to become a critical care physican, your channel is an invaluable resource. While there's plenty of FOAM material on critical care out there (I'm a longtime emcrit fan), there's pretty much *nothing* like your channel on Youtube. I can't thank you enough for these videos!

Im a RN that just joined the CVICU team and I really enjoyed hearing your mindset.

[SaurabhSharma-frqs]

very honest perspective. This is exactly how a day is for me as an intern. It sucks to get pimped on rounds but he is right on being thorough because people are veryyy sick. Also Eddie please make a video on Mechanical Ventilation/Vent Settings !

[hockeydude]

Hey eddie, im a second year US IMG and really interested in critical care, this channel is exactly what I was looking for. Please keep up the great work😊

Watched this video in 2017 when I was graduating hs. I’m now a 3rd year at Johns Hopkins and I know Pulm/crit is my route. This video helped and has always stayed in the back of my mind

[MHSMagicLuver]

Wow! You mentioned PA's and I just thank you for that. I graduate in 11 days from PA school. I actually start my final rotation tomorrow (yes, I only get a week thanks to COVID) in the PICU. I will be following a PA and I know everywhere differs but I wanted to get an idea of what exactly goes on. Thank you!

Also, my fiances sister is actually an ICU travel nurse. :)

Being a retired RN who worked almost 10 yrs in Critical Care appreciate your vlog. I remember watching for all the docs to come in with my patient needs ready to talk about. I loved Critical Care.

[andreferrer]

Thank you for this. i am thinking about becoming a Intensivist, and your cleared some of my doubts

[armandosoto]

Wow 😮 😍 Super Excited for my future. Working with patients, and speaking to families is what excites me the most about medicine. Thanks for the info handsome

[andrewmorris]

Wow, I am so glad I found your channel. I am wrapping up my 2nd year as pre med. I am a tech in the ICU at my local hospital and I love it. I know working in the ICU is what I want to do. Thank you for offering your insight on this career, this really makes me exited to whats ahead with a career as an intensivist!

[ericap]

Finally a doctor who appreciates his nursing team. Sad the attitudes and abuse physicians have towards us. Was NICU nurse for 10 years and NNP for 8 years finally had enough.

[achdicu]

Hi Eddie! I'm a colleague of yours. Thank you very much for sharing your experience and promoting our awesome specialty. It's so surprising to see how much our typical day looks the same! I agree with all the advice you gave in your video. Keep up the great work! Cheers, Diego

[gracie.]

I am trying to figure out how to not only be a good nurse for my ICU patients but how to be efficient for my intensivist. But as I see how attentive you are on your rounds I feel like my docs, one in particular is just an ass. lol Keep up the good work. Id be thrilled to work with someone so dedicated to the job.

[mystrybehindchemistry]

Hey Eddie, it’s good to hear you
Keep making more videos on technicality of ICU like ECG, X-ray, 2Decho atleast we should know how to interpret these
Thank you

I really appreciate you doing these videos. Thank you and please keep it up!!

[alejandrocanas]

Hey Eddy, I enjoyed watching your video. I'm currently a 5th year undergraduate student. I'm taking my MCAT soon and have become very interested in becoming an Intensivist since volunteering in the ICU at my local hospital. Thanks!

[alexandertataryn]

Thanks, Doc for the review. Well done and honest perspective.

[ItsMe-oxlm]
