Join us as we recap a very special week of Grand Rounds here at UCEM! We started off with Dr. David Wright, visiting us from Emory University, to discuss the very latest in ICH management and also share his pearls for developing into leaders in our field. Next, we are joined by Dr. Cheetham, a PEM attending and EMS fellow, who reminds us the importance of EMS handoffs and even offers ways we can improve the safety of our patients. Dr. Martella shares how his previous time spent working in fast food industry helped shape him into the dedicated and compassionate physician he is today. Followed by Dr. Lewis educating each of us on how to better recognize and manage acute-onset pulmonary edema in the crashing patient. Lastly, our PEM colleagues from CCHMC stop by to help us better diagnose and manage a child presenting to ED with a limp. This week certainly highlighted the collaborative nature of our speciality and we are beyond grateful for all our colleagues near & far that help make us into better providers!
