Join us as we recap another excellent week of Grand Rounds. We start with the final installment of our leadership curriculum, where Drs. Hill and LaFollette guide us through the dreaded task of self-promotion. We join Dr. Stark on a moment of self-reflection and growth following a particularly difficult patient case. We are transported into the SRU as Dr. Wright presents the evidence for how we should approach traumatic cardiac arrests in the resus bay. Dr. Adan shares his airway expertise and provides helpful tips/tricks for overcoming the feared anterior airway. Lastly, our colleagues from pharmacy drop by to discuss some relevant updates- including reasons why you should think twice before ordering a urine culture in the ED.

Grand Rounds Recap 11.20.19
Dr. Golden kicked grand rounds off this week with our monthly morbidity and mortality conference, followed by Dr. Lane’s deep dive on massive pulmonary embolism in cardiac arrest and how to approach this. Dr. Owens then gave us a detailed review on a probably-more-common-than-you-think parasite that has started popping up in the US, and our excellent ED pharmacists gave us a crash course on common antidotes to various poisonings, overdoses, and bites that we frequently see in the ED. Finally, Dr. Ham finished up with a review of the importance of chronic hypertension in our ED population and how we can make a difference especially those with limited access to care.
