ICU & - a while back, I asked how many of you see ICU patients AFTER they leave the hospital - 87% said rarely/never 🫠

🙋🏽‍♀️ Do you wonder what happens to them?

You are not recognized nor rewarded, especially financially, for good, compassionate patient care.

Its SO easy to recognize this fact and lower your standards because 'no one is watching' and “no one seems to care.'

Being in a program where we don’t pre-round has only further convinced me that the pre-rounding industrial complex must be abolished

Grading edema on a 4 point scale is a great way to communicate edema because there is consensus on what it means. 🤦🏻‍♂️

As promised, a 🧵on our work, “Absolute Neutrophil Count by Duffy Status Among Healthy Black and African American Adults”

Three months into intern year and besides replenishing ‘lytes, the thing I treat most often is loneliness.

T-minus 3 days until I start my first day of residency, 28hr call in the ICU. I’m so ready to jump in! I feel like a paratrooper still waiting on the plane.

Everyone questioned why I signed up for a difficult ICU rotation in my last blocks of medical school. But I learned a ton, met great people at OHSU Pulmonary, Allergy & Critical Care, and now get to use those skills in my first rotation of residency in the MICU! @Harborviewmc UW PulmCritCareSleep

If you genuinely enjoy writing your packing list, developing a shorthand system to denote the status of each item, and methodically checking them off as they go into your suitcase, you already have half the requisite skills for internal medicine residency.
