Grand Rounds Recap 05.29.24
Another week, another great Grand Rounds line-up at UCEM. We start off with our monthly Mortality and Morbidity Conference led by Chief Resident Dr. Finney. This session covers cases from the month of April- including the treatment of a canine in the SRU. One of our SRU leaders, Dr. Chhabria, shares the changing landscape of cardiac arrest management using ECMO. Next up, Dr. Thompson helps us reflect on the self-talk that we engage in on a daily basis and offers advice on how to improve our mindset- especially when we are on-shift. We learn from Dr. Kotei how to better ED proceduralists when encountering patients with ascites and/or pleural effusions. We end with Dr. Hajdu challenging Dr. Baez to solve a puzzling case of progressive vision loss in a otherwise healthy young patient.
