More breakout videos from this creator.
I just finished my fifth week of my internal medicine rotation and I thought it would be helpful if I went through a list I've been pimped on for anyone IM or later on this year. I'm not gonna give the answers because I feel like that would just turn into a really long video, so I'm just gonna rapid fire give off the questions. What is CHADS VASC and how do you calculate it? What are the classes of AFIB? What are the causes of AFIB? Interpret an EKG. I had to go through, like, rate, rhythm, axis, intervals, all the. All the stuff. What is the GDMT for HFrEF? What is SIRS criteria? What's the difference between sepsis, severe sepsis, and septic shock and how do you change your management for each? What are some of the common causes of high anion metabolic acidosis? What is the GFR cutoff for metformin treatment? What is the definition of an AKI? What is LIGHTS criteria? What is a SAG score? What is the criteria for assessing pulmonary embolism risk called? What drug do you give for someone who's experiencing active alcohol withdrawal? What is the score you're supposed to calculate to assess for risk of alcohol withdrawal? Most common causes of pancreatitis. What are the indications for dialysis? The difference between nephrotic and nephritic syndrome. The difference between bowel obstruction and ileus. And then I also got asked to talk about the different acute coronary syndromes. Um, that was more conversational. I was just talking about STEMI and NSTEMI and unstable angina. And then I'm sure I've been asked a lot, but to be honest, my experience with pimping has not been all that bad. I feel like it's a lot more an and the attendings are just making sure I'm on the same page with the case versus, outwardly trying to test my knowledge and make me look like a fool. But I hope that was helpful. And let me know if you guys want any answers to any of those questions because I, because a lot of them I, but I don't think I would have been able to necessarily just, like, list them off the bat. So. Any list them off the bat. So. Anyways, good luck.
