Open Access Medical Education
Committed to sharing Internal Medicine focused lectures as free open access medical education.
In this video, Dr. Bryan Moffett examines common issues interns may face. He begins by discussing how to approach calls. He then examines areas like Diabetes, Insulin therapy, Pain management, Patient Controlled Analgesia (PCA), Chest Pain, Hypotension, HTN Blood Pressure, Dsyphea/Hypoxia, Agitation, Diarrhea, and Insomnia
Read MoreLouisville Lectures welcomes you to the fourth phase of our Boot Camp series. We continue presenting high-yield, critical topics that are useful to starting interns.
This week, we will look at two highly anticipated videos, Common Intern Issues by Dr. Bryan Moffett and Discussing DNR Issues by Dr. Lori Earnshaw.
