Perfect your ED oral presentation in less than 6 shifts with this book and HONOR your rotation!
I have been using the book for my emergency medicine elective rotation at the start of my third year and first time in the hospital; it has made my presentations very efficient, thank you!
— Marie A.
The inside cover of this 5" x 7" book is adorned with six of the most common calculators used in the emergency department (Well's criteria for DVT and PE, PERC score, SIRS, HEART score, CURB-65, NEXUS, and the Aortic Dissection Risk Score calculator). The inner sheets (100 pages) consist of an intuitive ED oral presentation template. Shipped via USPS media mail unless otherwise requested.
Prior to interviewing the patient, note their CC, relevant hx, vitals, and imaging/EKG findings if abnormal. Interview the patient. Once complete, jot down a brief HPI, physical exam, and highlight pertinent positive ROS, medication, labs, imaging, and disposition you plan to present to your attending. Present. Once complete, hold on to your booklet to use during consults and admissions. Update your booklet with positive findings as they arrive, and cross out highlighted negatives.
The emergency room is a fast-moving, fluid machine, as should be the ED oral presentation. The third or fourth year medical student ought to be able to deliver a coherent patient story in <3 minutes, interview and manage 4-10 patients per shift, and give a smooth consult or admission presentation at any point during their shift, even on a patient that was interviewed hours ago. This is a difficult task for medical students to learn. This book quickens that learning process by providing an organizing framework and introducing the medical student to the gamut of labs, imaging studies, tools, and dispositions commonly ordered within the emergency department.
