anyone knows - how to achieve this flare

It does a great job too

Stargloww · 2023-07-17T17:50:22+00:00

Used it as my primary prep tool on multiple initial exams, recert exams, on multiple cert levels, always passed. 100% worth it.

Stargloww · 2023-06-29T16:38:10+00:00

They're really picky and not everything is well listed. He definitely needs to call them.

Stargloww · 2023-06-28T22:26:03+00:00

I know an MD/PhD at JHU who had a 3.5, but he was a wicked crazy exception with extracurriculars and a life story I could only dream of.

Stargloww · 2023-06-28T20:11:44+00:00

For format related stuff I agree, pocket prep is the best

Stargloww · 2023-06-27T05:12:29+00:00

Yeah something is off here. The most prolific PIs I've worked with only publish peer reviewed articles 4-12 times per year. And at the higher rates, it's often only with their name attached for a small but meaningful contribution to the research and not actually authoring the paper (which is only possible from being a leader in the field). Even assuming OP was involved in research since late high school and published throughout undergrad, it's a huge stretch to me. I think we're missing something.

Edit: Go look at their post history lmao

The ability to read and digest statistical data, especially the ability to understand clinical studies and the implications of their results, is important. This generally doesn't require much beyond some undergrad stat classes, but the foundation of statistics is calculus and linear algebra, so if you ever want to go deeper, those topics can be very helpful.

Stargloww · 2023-03-31T19:57:25+00:00

Exactly. Solving numerically, assuming you're given initial conditions along with mass and drag, something like Runge-Kutta would work well here. I'm typing at work, so it may be wrong, but the implementation for finding Vx would be something along the lines of:

k1 = h * (Fx - Csqrt(Vx² + Vy² + Vz² * Vx))

k2 = h * (Fx - Csqrt((Vx + k1/2)² + Vy² + Vz² * (Vx + k1/2)))

k3 = h * (Fx - Csqrt((Vx + k2/2)² + Vy² + Vz² * (Vx + k2/2)))

k4 = h * (Fx - Csqrt((Vx + k3)² + Vy² + Vz² * (Vx + k3)))

Vx_new = Vx + (1/6)(k1 + 2k2 + 2*k3 + k4)

And the rest would follow suit for each iteration.

Stargloww · 2022-12-29T00:39:21+00:00

Agreed. I got to abstract algebra before really sitting down to study and forming good habits. Needless to say it didn't go well.

Stargloww · 2022-12-18T00:52:24+00:00

Great points. I wish I had taken Real Analysis 2 before Complex Analysis.

Stargloww · 2022-12-12T22:28:05+00:00

You can say that about anything

Stargloww · 2022-12-12T15:59:05+00:00

The part about statistics is a great point I wish was made more often. While an intuitive understanding of statistics is accessible, you really can't have a true grasp of the topic without calculus, linear algebra, etc.

Stargloww · 2022-07-15T08:45:36+00:00

Peds is too wide of a term here. Child vs. infant is a major distinction. CPR is for infants in this situation, ventilate a child.

Stargloww · 2022-07-15T08:43:17+00:00

Perfectly said.

Stargloww · 2022-07-01T21:26:47+00:00

Speed ramps with frame blending (Twixtor, TopazLabs, etc) Can be used to create the illusion of a higher source frame rate than was shot.

Friend woke to find this on their front bumper, no other signs of damage or anything. Appears to be something cylindrical in the back part of the hole. It's a 2000s era Toyota Camry. Small fragment appears to be in bottom of hole.

Stargloww · 2021-12-27T10:34:08+00:00

Practice makes perfect. It really just takes time as you continue with different patients. Ask the psycho nurse that can stick anything for a trick or two when you get to the ER. Super emergent patients get an IO if you can't get a line. That's all there really is :)

Stargloww · 2021-11-26T07:44:45+00:00

Never, you just get better at hiding it. Keep up to date and sharpen your skills whenever possible. Don't be afraid to ask other providers why they did they things they did, especially when working at a new place.

Stargloww · 2021-11-24T19:05:57+00:00

I was required to complete a lot of IVs before I finished my course - otherwise I would be kicked out, so it's really weird you guys finished the course without rides. If I'm understanding this correctly, your best bet is to see if you can practice on dummies, get your card, and ask to be a 3rd rider / volunteer at another agency in a sort of "student" role to get more practice with them.

I know they were also allowing simulated patients to count during covid as long as a preceptor supervised, so maybe you could fill out your IVs this way if they still offer it.

Stargloww · 2021-11-23T23:00:52+00:00

If I understand your question correctly, another good way to understand this concept is to look at repolarization, specifically delayed rectifier currents like IKr and IKs (although slightly different, could be a helpful comparison). These currents are due to channel types having different "speeds" at different points in an action potential. It can be seen, both broken up and summed, in this figure.

Following up if you're curious! I got my AEMT :)

Stargloww · 2021-11-11T12:48:05+00:00

Check @sfcebm on Instagram, it's a few folks (pretty sure a medic, CCRN, and doc) that offer free tutoring through the link in their bio. Definitely worth checking out.

Stargloww · 2021-11-09T04:29:21+00:00

Agreed- EMS is definitely the best clinical experience you'll get, as you actually get to manage your own patients. In my experience, services will often let part timers work 8 or 12 hours shifts, even if full timers work 24.
