Big congrats to Dr. on resident of the month! She did a wonderful job on nights this month. We are so proud of you!

Team Tuesday this week is featuring Team 2! This team covers general pediatrics as well patients on the cardiology service. They are on call for gen peds every 4th day but admit cards patients any day they come in. Our hospital has pediatric CT surgery as well as a cath lab and cardiac PICU which means our cardiology team gets direct exposure to basically all heart lesions and issues pre-op, post-op, inter-stage, post cath, and years to follow. Dr. Harrison, who is pictured, is one of our amazing general pediatric hospitalists who rotate weekly. This resident part of the team is made up an upper level, an intern, and this month an awesome anesthesia intern. We love our off service rotators (anesthesia, psych, and family medicine)!

Keep up the great work this month, team 2! Almost to the new block!

We have had the BEST few days hanging out with our M4s during our social hour, chief chats, tours, and lunch. What a fun group! We are pumped to get to know even more cool M4s over the next few months through more social hours, chief chats, and second look days!

Wishing all of you a wonderful interview season!

Each Friday, Case Management is held during morning conference. This is a time for two residents- usually an intern and an upper level- to work through a case presented by an attending or fellow. The residents are on the “hot seat” meaning they are asking questions for HPI, coming up with a differential, and working up a patient through different diagnostic tools.

Today, Dr. Bishop, one of our wonderful pediatric gastroenterologists, presented a case on an adolescent female with abdominal pain and emesis associated with her cycle. Dr. Armand and Dr. White worked through the case having already prepared a differential landing on the diagnosis of cyclic vomiting fling in the subtype of catamenial. This was followed by a great discussion on CVS diagnosis and treatment. Great work, ladies!

Team Tuesday this week is featuring nursery also know as purple NICU team. This team is made up of interns. Sometimes an upper level is also on the team doing an elective. All interns do a month total! Dr. May is one of our awesome attendings as well as graduate from our program. Dr. Craig Skousen is our first year NICU fellow and is currently rotating through nursery! All M3s do 1 week of nursery while on their pediatric clerkship. This team is located in Wiser Hospital for Women and Infants. Sanderson, Batson, Wiser, and UMMC adult and psych hospitals all are on the same campus and connect! No need to go to any other campus for any inpatient rotations!

Keep up the great work team!

Each Friday, Case Management is held during morning conference. This is a time for two residents- usually an intern and an upper level- to work through a case presented by an attending or fellow. The residents are on the “hot seat” meaning they are asking questions for HPI, coming up with a differential, and working up a patient through different diagnostic tools.

Today, Dr. Criscuolo who is one of our awesome pediatric cardiologist presented on hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy! He provided Chandler and Courtney with a prompt on a 13 year old M with ear pain. They came up with a broad differential on this ear pain. But surprise!! It was really a finding of a pathologic murmur with a final diagnosis of HOCM! Dr. Noel and Dr. Collins absolutely rocked through despite the sudden shift in the case. They picked up on the possibility of HOCM based on murmur description, read an EKG, and noticed septal thickening on ECHO all while on the hot seat!! Talk about impressive!
