Sometimes the little extras make the difference in getting the line or not getting the line.

This not a how to. These are some tips and tricks that people have taught me over the last 2-3 years, and that I teach to residents.

All additions, corrections, and comments welcome!

Vents are still difficult for me. There’s lots of physics and numbers and my brain just does not naturally work like that.

I’ve been working through vent details lately, and I thought I’d share some basics.

Corrections very welcome—I’m still training my brain in this stuff.
