One of the most common procedures we do in the emergency department is procedural sedation. One doctor does the primary procedure, one doctor pushes meds and watches airway. There are 5 common medications that I have seen used in the ED. We will cover these as well as the general approach today.

Introduction: Today, I am very excited to announce that The Emergency Medicine Clerkship Podcast (and its affiliate website) are officially LAUNCHED!!! Over the next several weeks, I plan on streamlining and simplifying the technical side of my publishing process. by EM Clerkship
7 min listen
Chest Pain: Today I would like to teach you about the biggest, awesomest, most stereotypical chief complaint that there is in all of Emergency Medicine: chest pain. This is a huge topic on your shelf exam, and you really need to have an in-depth understanding of i... by EM Clerkship
10 min listen
Shortness of Breath: The most important thing to remember about shortness of breath is that you need to keep your thoughts and actions focused by using an organized approach. I recommend thinking anatomically. The differential diagnosis for this complaint is huge, by EM Clerkship
8 min listen
Heart Injury: This week we are continuing our trauma series and talking about cardiac injury. There are 3 big diagnoses in this section that we will cover: cardiac tamponade, aortic dissection, and blunt cardiac injury. All 3 can kill your patient, by EM Clerkship
10 min listen
Headache: Headache is one of the most common chief complaints that you will see on your clerkship. Luckily, it is also one of my favorite cases to evaluate. Why do I love it so much? Because I don’t need to be completely dependent on ancillary testing! by EM Clerkship
10 min listen
Pregnancy Injury: For our last trauma episode, we will be covering the basic approach to injuries in pregnant women. These can be very stressful cases, but the good news is that the approach is very straight forward. It’s just 5 extra interventions you have to perform i... by EM Clerkship
10 min listen
Trauma: Trauma is easily the most interesting topic in all of emergency medicine. We might not see it quite as much as chest pain and abdominal pain, but trauma is certainly one of the top 10 things you will see most commonly on your clerkship. by EM Clerkship
9 min listen
Airway: During your clerkship, you will be encountering sick patients. This is obvious. However, I promise that at least one of these patients will catch you VERY off guard. It usually goes like this, you are walking into a room, by EM Clerkship
10 min listen
Patient Presentations: We are going to discuss a very important topic today. How do you give a good patient presentation to your attending? This is the single most important skill you need to develop on your clerkship. Your presentations need to be FOCUSED, THOROUGH, by EM Clerkship
8 min listen
Circulation (Shock): Today is episode C, the final episode in our 3 part podcast series on the approach to a crashing patient. In previous episodes we covered AIRWAY: how the first thing we need to do is suction and move the posterior portion of the patient’s tongue. by EM Clerkship
9 min listen
Burnout: Before we start clerkship season, we need to address the most important issue impacting emergency medicine: HALF of our physicians are experiencing burnout this year (Medscape). This is a huge problem. It leads to decreased speed, by EM Clerkship
7 min listen
Epistaxis: If you listened to the introduction episode, you heard my story about the patient with a bleeding nose. I had NO IDEA what to do. It was embarrassing. And that specific situation is what inspired the creation of this episode. Nosebleeds can be scary! by EM Clerkship
7 min listen
Priapism: When I was on my clerkship, a few of my classmates had patients present to the emergency department with priapism. It’s not common. But even if you don’t get a case during your clerkship, you will certainly see one during residency. by EM Clerkship

10 min listen
Altered Mental Status: AEIOU TIPS. This is easily one of the most important mnemonics of emergency medicine because it represents the differential diagnosis for altered mental status. Obviously, this is not meant to be an exhaustive list, by EM Clerkship
10 min listen
STEMI (Critical Diagnosis): We get hundreds of EKGs every day looking for ST elevation myocardial infarction. And when you finally see it, you have to know what to do. In 2013, the American Heart Association updated their STEMI management guidelines, by EM Clerkship

BRUE (Pediatrics): Brief. Resolved. Unexplained. Events. A few months ago the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) released a set of guidelines on the management of a common pediatric condition formally known as ALTE (now known as BRUE). by EM Clerkship
10 min listen
Patient Encounters: During your clerkship, you will rapidly develop a flow for your shift. What do you do when you first pick up a chart? How much do you let your patients ramble? After you evaluate your patient, do you sprint at full speed straight to your attending? by EM Clerkship
10 min listen
Breathing: Today is episode B in a series about our approach to the crashing patient. As we discussed in the previous episode, at some point during your clerkship, you will have a patient that starts dying right in front of your eyes. And it will be very scary! by EM Clerkship
8 min listen
Neck Injury: Today we will be covering neck injury. Specifically, we will cover soft tissue injury of the neck. It can be divided into blunt and penetrating trauma. And because this is where the blood vessels are located, by EM Clerkship
