Grand Rounds Recap 9.27.23
It was a stellar week here at UCEM Grand Rounds! We kicked off the day with a lecture from our colleague at CCHMC, Dr. Dean, about management of pediatric airways. We then transitioned to a review of landmark studies in EM, specifically with regards to targeted and systemic thrombolysis for MI, stroke, and PE. We continued our day by discussing evidence based medicine and the implementation of this in the prehospital setting with EMS faculty, Dr. Richards. Next, Drs. de Castro and Thompson faced off in an epic battle of CPC where we covered the diagnosis and management of euglycemic DKA. This was then followed by Dr. Vaughan’s R1 diagnostics and therapeutics lecture on pneumothoracies. Finally, we wrapped up the day with Dr. Gillespie’s R4 capstone lecture.

For Grand Rounds this week We took a deep dive into 2 cases of Pericardial Effusions with our R2 CPC with Dr. Grisoli and our R3 Taming the SRU lecture with Dr. Ferreri. One case ended up being a purulent pericardial effusion while the other was an LV freewall rupture. Dr. Sabedra Expanded our knowledge on how to better care for pregnant and breast feeding patients and how to be a support co-worker to our pregnant and breast feeding colleges. Lastly, Dr. Frankenfeld walked us through some of the data around when patients leave against medical advice, how to try to avoid this, and how to appropriately counsel our patients.
