In this episode, I discuss one of the most important practical skills for medical students during the surgery clerkship: how to pre-round efficiently and deliver a concise, clinically useful patient presentation on rounds. Topics include: <ul data-start="1240" data-end="1530"> <li data-section-id="19lnlfb" data-start="1240" data-end="1289"> what surgeons actually care about during rounds</li> <li data-section-id="2mrfcc" data-start="1290" data-end="1334">how to identify important overnight events</li> <li data-section-id="1ey6or4" data-start="1335" data-end="1385"> recognizing trends in vital signs and physiology</li> <li data-section-id="o2hihh" data-start="1386" data-end="1426"> organizing a 60–90 second presentation</li> <li data-section-id="12buz2h" data-start="1427" data-end="1466"> common mistakes medical students make</li> <li data-section-id="6pbgli" data-start="1467" data-end="1530">how residents and attendings think differently about patients</li> </ul> This episode focuses on helping students move beyond simply reporting data and begin developing the clinical reasoning and prioritization skills that define effective surgical thinking.

Starting Surgery Rotation: How to Pre-Round and Present on Rounds

This is the second installment of this topic. In this episode we talk about the role of angioplasty and role of various medications in the treatment of the patient having an MI.

Myocardial Infarction: PCI and medications

It is Sunday 8.31.08 and for hurricane Gustav is bearing down on the city of New Orleans. This podcast will discuss the basic elements of disaster planning and management. (This was reposted due to some technical problems with the server.)

Disaster Management

Crush syndrome is a common cause of death following earth quakes, mine and building collapses. Traumatic rhabdomyolysis may also be seen following electrical injury or severe trauma. (This is a reposting due to some previous technical problems with the server.)

Traumatic Rhabdomyolyisis / Crush Syndrome

Myocardial Infaction (Part 1): This episode will discuss the diagnosis of MI, STEMI, and non-STEMI. We then discuss the indications and types of thrombolytic agents.

Myocardial Infarction: Diagnosis and Thrombolytics

The management of pain is a key element of the care of all patients-- ICU or not. Often providers have little understanding of the concepts and medications of pain management. This episode serves as an introduction.

PAIN: a four letter word

A potentiallylife-threatening electrolyte problem that commonly finds its way into the ICU as well as on exams.

Hypercalcemia

Getting patients comfortable on the ventilator is not an easy task. This podcasts focuses on methods to make patients synchronize with the ventilator as well as a discussion of spontaneous breathing and awake trials

Patient-Ventilator Interactions and ventilator discontinuation

In regards to ventilator care, all the focus has been on low tidal volume and level of peak inspiratory pressure. What level of PEEP shoud we be using to avoid shear trauma and ventilatory induced lung injury.

Ventilator Update: avoiding shear trauma

A discussion of the physiology and presentation of abdominal compartment syndrome.

Abdominal Compartment Syndrome

A limb-threatening complication that might be overlooked by the inexperienced provider.

Extremity Compartment Syndrome

A podcast dedicated to the teaching of critical care.  The focus audience is physicians, residents, medical students, nurses, therapists, and paramedics.  These are topics that arise while on teaching rounds in the Burn ICU at Vanderbilt Medical Center.  A broad scope of critical care and prehospital topics are presented as well as recent journal articles and medical news.
