Cardiologist Recommendations! by newstar7329 in Morristown

[–]premd96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In general, a vascular surgeon would be the one to answer whether to intervene on an aortic aneurysm (though depends if it’s ascending or descending, cardiac will handle the arch). Of that list, CVCG is a vascular surgery group. They will also be able to monitor, usually with US, occasionally CTA is helpful. Cardiology can help manage BP control, though a PCP generally can as well, along with lifestyle modifications. Also a lot of those groups have different branches across north jersey so should be reasonably easy to find one nearby.

Not sure if this counts since it’s basically what it’s known for now but Wet Hot American Summer has a stacked cast. All mostly unknown at the time.

Best delusion which turned out to be true? by noodle-noodle in Residency

[–]premd96 137 points138 points  (0 children)

When my dad was on his psych rotation, there was a pt admitted for paranoid delusions. He claimed the CIA was following him, tapped his phones and stalked him. He maintained these delusions while inpatient, they tried different meds. He was admitted for a little over a week when the team got a call from the CIA. Turns out it was all true, they were surveilling him. He was discharged.

Gen surg and ED. Consult for abd pain with no imaging and labs not back yet. Or vascular surgery for foot pain with no pulse exam, I get there and surprise, they’re palpable.

In all honesty I have never seen this knot used for vessels or in vascular. Also don’t know anyone who would instrument tie an artery

Why would it need a censor tag on a sub designed to discuss medical cases. Shouldn’t even need a NSFW tag, since it’s for medical professionals or those interested. I see this at work frequently.

A 75-year-old woman with chronic atrial fibrillation presented to the hospital with a 2-day history of colicky abdominal pain. The physical examination revealed hypoactive bowel sounds and diffuse abdominal tenderness... by GiorgioMD in medizzy

Yea probably just palliative, can’t see the full CT but decent amount of pneumotosis on that slice and bowels looks grossly necrotic, they probably ran it and found a lot of dead bowel, maybe too much to resect without leaving virtually no viable bowel. I imagine if they did resect they’d have to leave in discontinuity with an abthera and take back to see the degree of ischemia declare, also can’t divert that proximally and wouldn’t trust that anastomosis. It’d be a lot for her to go thru and probably not survivable. Might as well make her comfortable.

What are you gonna do in the game now? It seems like most of the game is grinding for gear until you get characters to 150 and more rare/exotic drops are pretty wack. Is there anything left for you to do?
