Bangalore Anaesthesia Review Course

Still poking for a vein after 5 failed attempts? There's one landmark you should never forget. 💉

I've seen countless residents struggle with difficult IV access, especially in infants. That's exactly why I love sharing simple, high-yield clinical pearls that make a real difference in both exams and practice.

Remember this:
• Landmark: Just medial to the medial malleolus
• A reliable site for difficult IV access
• Especially useful when other peripheral veins are hard to find
• Easy to remember. Easy to apply.

Want to perform hip blocks with confidence instead of guessing your anatomy? That's the difference between simply passing exams and becoming a skilled anaesthesiologist.

I've seen many PG students struggle because they memorize blocks without understanding the anatomy. This masterclass bridges that gap with practical, ultrasound-guided learning.

What you'll learn:
• Hip joint anatomy relevant to regional anaesthesia
• Sonoanatomy and key fascial planes
• Lumbar, sacral, femoral, obturator, LFCN and sciatic nerves
• Ultrasound-guided lumbar plexus, sacral plexus, fascia iliaca, PENG, femoral, obturator, LFCN and sciatic blocks

Elevated troponin? Don't make the mistake that costs students easy marks in NEET PG.

Many postgraduate students immediately think "myocardial infarction." I've seen this confusion time and again. But remember—troponin is a marker of myocardial injury, not just coronary artery blockage.

Here's a high-yield exam pearl:
• Troponin I and Troponin T are highly sensitive cardiac markers
• Elevated troponin does not always mean MI
• It can also rise in sepsis, shock, severe anemia, hypoxia, burns, major surgery, stroke and subarachnoid hemorrhage
• Always interpret the result with the patient's clinical picture
