I was diagnosed with LOVA hydrocephalus last year. In April I had an ETV. I ended up with life threatening post op complications with acute kidney injury stage 2 and cerebral salt wasting syndrome with salt level at 103. I was in HDU

how do you flush the propofol without 'bolus'-ing the patient with propofol

[@freshrn]

That's unavoidable, unfortunately. You've got to flush regularly or the tubing will likely clog (especially if it's at a lower rate) because of the high fat content of Propofol. However, it's a small amount that's in the tubing that you would be flushing. You can minimize this by flushing in the port closest to the patient. Or, if it's appropriate, at that time you can disconnect the tubing entirely and flush at the lumen. But you wouldn't want to disconnect your tubing every time you flush just to avoid this, as you're opening up a closed system and increasing the risk for infection. So, minimizing the amount of times you disconnect and reconnect your IV tubing is important.
