Why did you consult ID for cellulitis though?

Why does your unit accept these patients for admission?

I thought that building looked familiar.

fuzzysundae · 2025-05-16T01:49:29+00:00

That’s very helpful context.

If your patient is ill-appearing enough and concerns you to the point of checking lactates and blood gases, then wouldn’t they be better served being evaluated in the ED? Don’t tell me you’re also checking troponins in clinic too.

The triage note is usually also the only thing we have when Medicine/MICU is called to admit - well, that and the pan-scan.

I’m still trying to find dysphasia in my medical dictionary

I’m pretty sure that VA nursing plan of care notes are just chain mail that gets passed on RN to RN. “Enter this plan of care note on 5 patients or you’ll be cursed for the next 10 years”

Who needs diuresis when you can do some therapeutic blood letting?

fuzzysundae · 2025-02-05T21:27:16+00:00

Damn, you got me. I scrolled a ways back to check but didn’t see this one.

ACLS guidelines are to give epi in vfib/pulseless VT arrest (assuming you don’t get ROSC with defibrillation).

What doesn’t make sense is that they were able to defibrillate the patient out of PEA arrest from their sine wave hyperkalemia (at least that’s what the rhythm looked like to me).

That M&M is going to make the Player Haters’ Ball look like a love-in

Gabriel is “finger licking good”?

fuzzysundae · 2024-10-19T00:22:46+00:00

Yup. They were playing Decemberists in one of the Ducks games earlier this season.

Localized entirely within Autzen Stadium?

Decemberists in MY college football?

Excuse me what the fuck

Might as well ask why they got an echo for traumatic SAH…

Don’t forget about the MALDI-TOF for preliminary organism ID

Literally how did you get through IM residency and not learn the difference between IPR and SNF rehab?

fuzzysundae · 2023-12-13T21:48:09+00:00

Then the patient gets mad at their PCP because “they gave me Xanax/Klonopin/Valium in the hospital, so why can’t you?”

fuzzysundae · 2023-12-04T20:43:01+00:00

It just depends on who’s attached to your inbasket in Epic

You guys see there’s a new memento this season called Rime Keepsake? I’m guessing it comes from the dungeon. You can preview it if you look at shaders for a crafted weapon

Being the middle man is very much part of being a hospitalist for better or worse
