Absolutely astonishing Case & Video Explanation by ever amazing Sam Ghali, M.D.

Why background knowledge is so vital & taskification of healthcare puts people at higher risks.

Great case. Please, always stay humble in medicine, dig to the core, whether the case may seem to be typical or atypical - it can often lead to a positive and life-saving outcome--essential in medicine. Thanks for sharing Sam Ghali, M.D.

Fascinating case from Sam Ghali, M.D.

Do the ECG.

A very good example of a patient presenting with atypical symptoms...

Very informative video!!!
Makes me wonder how many timely interventions of Myocardial Injuries are missed in resource scarce and high patient burden centres where Doctors cannot afford to have a second look.....

I knew at least about 4 deaths associated with heart conditions and their only symptom was abdominal pain.

Watch the video breakdown!

Chief complaint: Abdominal pain that feels like “bad menstrual cramps.”

Medicine is very hard. Stay humble.

This. This is why listening to women’s complaints and using one’s diagnostics skills vs a very typical scenario of fatigue, heartburn or my favorite you are just anxious. Please listen and use the diagnostic tools at one’s disposal and then think. You will save a life.

🫀My dear female followers ... take a moment.

When abdominal pain - is cardiac.

'Although this patient was triaged to a lower level of care (a noncardiac unit) an astute physician decided to order an EKG.'

Her left circumflex artery that supplies a large portion of the heart…

Une excellente démonstration.

Cette patiente aurait pu facilement avoir un mauvais diagnostic et une mauvaise prise en charge.

Aussi, l’importance de prendre les femmes au sérieux et de considérer l’ensemble des diagnostics.

Thanks Sam Ghali, M.D.
Great case

Share this case with ER doc friends.. save a life. Especially women.

This is a great example of the potential to miss something critical. Video does a nice job explaining this patient from presentation to ER up to diagnosis. Well done to whoever caught this and re-triaged. 🏆
