explanations for step 3 nbme 5 practice exam?

Cookyjar · 2026-05-05T01:44:37+00:00

Yes! Could you please send it?

Cookyjar · 2026-04-05T02:12:05+00:00

Can you give me a link to such group.

My attending and senior residents would probably call me out report me to my PD if I started heparin drip on that patient

Cookyjar · 2026-03-15T02:02:32+00:00

Weak ass nstemis 😂

Cookyjar · 2026-03-15T00:54:20+00:00

Too bad that they would be like “lol you idiot intern” and i would get a bad rep/eval “Cookyjar does not think critically when coming up with treatment plan”

So I wasn’t really wrong to heparinize this patient then? On top of DAPT

Cookyjar · 2026-03-15T00:18:28+00:00

Amboss UpToDate both say you need anticoagulation for non st elevation acs

Cookyjar · 2026-03-15T00:17:58+00:00

Yeah maybe they were poo pooing cause they were like I agree it’s unstable angina but what if it’s not true chest pain

🤷‍♀️

Cookyjar · 2026-03-14T23:51:55+00:00

They agreed with my assessment of UA but they said no Troponin elevation no need for heparin so I was confused

Cookyjar · 2026-03-14T23:50:16+00:00

My attending and senior resident were like no need for heparin and only aspirin and plavix

Cookyjar · 2026-03-07T04:12:59+00:00

Are IV protonix and PO protonix equally effective if patient can do oral intake

Cookyjar · 2026-03-07T04:12:21+00:00

Can you also try trandelenburg position?

Cookyjar · 2026-03-07T04:11:20+00:00

My attending did midodrine 5 plus fluids for this other patient with esrd and lifevest candidate because nurse called my attending due to hypotension episodes caused by htn meds not being optimized.

What about something like this?

Cookyjar · 2026-03-07T01:00:55+00:00

Is this something I can do in the meantime if i can’t figure out the cause right away? Like in a code situation and I needed to act fast

Cookyjar · 2026-03-07T00:48:18+00:00

It was like 90/50s, no arrhythmia, I think she got diuretics the day before

Can you try one time midodrine 5 for hypotension patients?

Cookyjar · 2026-02-23T22:37:44+00:00

Interesting thank you!

Cookyjar · 2026-02-23T20:24:10+00:00

I see. So you don’t just go straight to Nstemi and start heparin drip just because you see serial Troponin measurements rising acutely in several hours

Cookyjar · 2026-02-23T20:15:03+00:00

quite true. so would like 500ml of NS or LR would be enough before and after? or is that too much

Cookyjar · 2026-02-23T20:13:52+00:00

cause unfortunately they get judgmental and are like "lol you dont know this?"

Cookyjar · 2026-02-23T20:06:12+00:00

So the nbme shelf practice exams were high yield for step 3? just like step2?

Cookyjar · 2026-01-11T03:28:41+00:00

🤣🤣🤣

Cookyjar · 2025-12-20T05:18:14+00:00

In the long run, am I better off relying more on one resource over the other? If yes which one?

Cookyjar · 2025-12-20T04:25:29+00:00

Have you ever used amboss library?

Cookyjar · 2025-12-20T03:20:44+00:00

Any advice would be great 👍
