Hard to believe another block is finished! Soon we will find ourselves in a FLIP conference desert with a long stretch of regional conferences until Halloween. However, that doesn’t mean that we will slack on continual content. See the highlights below
JC: Dr. Chris Moore
We had another solid JC this month. We investigated junior resident’s success using video-guided laryngoscopy vs DL. Below is the article/summaries, as well as the clinical vignette/correlation. Remember the articles/summary is the raw by the books examination of the literature while the clinical vignette/correlation applies all the researchy stuff into clinical practice!

AMS: Algorithm Building
We unveiled another new FLIP station this block: algorithm building. The point was to take a common ED chief complaint, and break down the steps we take to work it up. This was a HUGE topic, and 40 minutes didn’t do it justice. The full content of the station is posted below, including a recommended algorithm, all 4 cases, and detailed case reviews. Check out the notes for each powerpoint slide, there is quite a lot of educational goodness packed behind all those memes/GIFs.

Admini: Ebola Review
Ebola is quite the problem. Management is VERY particular. Dr. D gave us a very detailed rundown from a real situation we had at DRH. Stay informed, 70-90% mortality is no joke.
