Reproductive medicine conference patient presentation
Filed Under (Rotations) by Dave on 19-11-2009
So every Thursday I have to pick a patient that I saw in the past week and present the patient in front of the reproductive medicine board. Board being the 3 or 4 doctors in the department as well as a resident and at least one medical student.
I presented a patient last week, but one of the doctors seemed to have thought I didn’t provide him with enough or THE information that he wanted. Hence I was “wasting his time.”
Now I have gathered said information that he wants and am to present the patient again today at 1:30.
I even went over the information with another of the doctors this morning who said I needed to still find the dosage for Bi-est. I repeated that I had already called the local compounding pharmacy and was told twice what the dosage was. He still felt I was missing some information. At that point I pulled up a google site created by a compounding pharmacy and showed him that the dosage was as I was told. If the bi-est is 40/60 2mg then its 40% estriol to 60% estradiol. Just that simple. So he then seemed to agree that I had the information I needed.
I guess we will see what the other doctor who wasn’t pleased with the presentation last week thinks today.
And since the online pharmacy site was such a help, at least at this point I hope, I want to post a link for others. So here it is…
