Grand Rounds Recap 7.6.2022
This week we heard from Dr. Baxter about clinical reasoning and the pendulum of clinical thought one often goes through during residency. Dr. Thompson had a brief Operations update for trauma pages and sepsis. We were pushed to consider our own practice patterns with Dr. LaFollette’s cases of Hyponatremia, Sodium Nitrate and Syncope. The quick hits lecture series made its debut talking about QTc intervals, penetrating neck trauma, and a pneumonia research quick hit. We wrapped up the day with neuroimaging tips from Dr. Knight and understanding the care delivered to incarcerated persons at the Hamilton county justice center with Dr. Srivastava.
Protect Me! "Flights" #4 Recap

Take a look at our thoughts on the cases and see what you might do in similar situations.
