Get the Cellular respiration mug.A tourniquet resistant patient (TRP) that is so morbidly obese that a pneumatic tourniquet, despite the highest safe setting, will not be able to adequately restrict blood flow to the extremity to allow bloodless surgery. The sheer girth of the extremity precludes effective tourniquet use.
I wouldn't be so confident. Just looking at this patient's leg makes me think she is a Tourniquet Resistant Patient. You'll be awash in blood despite the tourniquet. Good luck my friend.

Get the stop resisting mug.The resistant behavior of women emotive circuit that elicits right before first-time sex is called last-minute resistance...
Every woman has hardwired into her head a behavioral circuit that works to protect her from getting pregnant by a man who has no intention of sticking around to help raise the child. The resistant behavior this emotive circuit elicits right before first-time sex is called last-minute resistance. It is your job to ease her through this uncomfortable emotion should it arise. Having sex carries a much larger risk and investment for a woman than it does for a man from an evolutionary perspective. Last-minute resistance is her last line of defense before the point of no return.
