Hey all! Now that Inservice is behind us we will resume our normally scheduled conferences. We still have TWO more cardio blocks to finish up (for the record we are on pt 4/5). This week we will have Dr. Nangia Jr teaching us about endocarditis/myocarditis, a deep dive into PEA arrest by Dr. White, as well as a megacode sim station run by Dr. Saker.
Dr. White’s deep dive: PLEASE, take the time to study the REQUIRED MATERIAL below. The deep dive station will be a true FLIP and require your participation.
Big Tuna’s Megacode: This will involve running through several cardiac arrest cases in pseudo-sim fashion. We will have ED nurses there to help out. The aim will be for the interns to practice LEADING codes, and for the 2nd/3rd years to assist.
FYI no quiz this week… we are taking a quiz break since we are post inservice
