abnormal uterine bleeding in the non-pregnant individual draft
Abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB) is a common gynecologic complaint seen in the emergency department, yet the differential ranges from benign anovulatory cycles to life-threatening hemorrhage and occult malignancy. Once pregnancy has been excluded, a structured approach is essential. Join Dr Cain as he discusses the classification, evaluation, and emergency management of AUB in the non-pregnant patient.
To Scan or Not to Scan: Trauma Imaging in the Age of the Pan-Scan
Trauma imaging has never been more accessible, and the pan‑scan often feels like the fastest path to certainty. In this edition of our resident journal club, join Drs Gallen and Vaughn as they pair and review two articles regarding trauma CT utilization - REACT-2 and Ather et al, with a hope of exploring the question of when whole-body CT improves care vs when selective imaging can be equally as effective.
TRACE-5: Rethinking the 24-hour clock in Basilar Artery Occlusions
Basilar artery occlusion (BAO) remains one of the most devastating strokes we face, and treatment decisions often stretch beyond the familiar anterior‑circulation playbook. This study, TRACE‑5, takes a bold step into that uncertainty, testing Tenecteplase in BAO patients presenting up to 24 hours from symptom onset. Join Dr. Onuzuruike as he unpacks the trial’s design, its surprising and practice‑shaping findings, and what this study might mean for the future of posterior circulation stroke care.
