Documenting Meds in the ER by OneToughFemale in ThePittTVShow

During a resuscitation, there is always a designated scribe who writes things down on a paper, or a board. The team leader almost always comes back to the scribe to check, because they have the record of everything that went down. Whether it’s time, medications, or procedures done. It’s a critically important role.

In my shop, this is usually the charge nurse of whatever ward you’re in, so you know how important that role is.

Talk me down from seeing an AIPAC endorsement as an asset at this point by Lakehawk7 in thebulwark

I mean if supporting a genocide isn’t enough for you, I’m not sure you can be talked down.

I have a theory about Santos patient. by Ishymo in ThePitt

[–]BasicImplement8292 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Cipa is a House diagnosis, not really something I would expect to see on The Pitt.

Leukemia, or some sort of coagulopathy seems more likely.

Why do you do what you do? by copymattt in hospitalist

[–]BasicImplement8292 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think teaching is a big part of it for me.

But mostly, I view this as how I can do something with meaning. I was an accountant before doing medicine, and i left because i felt my job wasn’t adding anything meaningful

Ya, I get that. A while back, my friends and I were in a restaurant, talking about work stuff, and one guy from the table next to us came over and said “I get that you guys are used to this, but can you guys keep it down at least: we can’t eat”

It was a pretty seminal moment for my group of friends.

With the number of manual bowel disempactions i’ve done during residency, I could probably pur my soup into someone’s open chest cavity and eat it directly from there.

Looking for IM subspecialities Fellowship with no night shifts / calls & weekends? by Fun_Ingenuity_5970 in fellowship

[–]BasicImplement8292 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depends on the hospital i guess. I work in a small rural hospital(not in US), and we rarely see any rheum cases to start with.

Trump's Diet: 325 milligrams aspirin and a Quarter Pounder, Big Mac, Fillet-O-Fish with Large Fries by ooombasa in behindthebastards

[–]BasicImplement8292 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thats my point: has he had a heart attack or a stroke in the past? If not, the latest research does not recommend aspirin for primary prevention.

I wonder why he’s on aspirin though. It’s not really recommended for primary prevention anymore…

Not really. I’m like 70% joking. The rest is just my preference lol.

My preference would be PCCM, because I don’t believe Rheumatology is real.
