VA Wards, ICU, Consults, Electives

These sessions are facilitated by the OHSU and VA Quality Improvement Chiefs and are an opportunity for you to practice running a code in a simulation environment. Specific wards teams are scheduled to attend, and any housestaff on ICU, consults, or electives are encouraged to join as their schedules permit. Most simulated cases are complete in 10 minutes and a lot can be learned by observing peers and giving and receiving feedback.

EKG Rounds

Wed, 14:30

VA Wards, Consults, Electives

These virtual sessions are hosted by the current echo cardiology fellow on the call schedule. VA wards teams are expected to come prepared with EKGs from recent patients for review (via screen sharing), similar to Radiology Rounds. Bread & butter EKGs are welcome. A trainee reads the EKG and the fellow provides feedback and impromptu learning points relevant for internists.

Rads Rounds

Mon 9:00 - 9:30

OHSU Wards

These sessions are hosted by an OHSU Radiology attending. Wards teams submit cases in advance with an emphasis on chest radiology. The intern or resident caring for the patient delivers a 1-liner and gives their read of the image, and the attending provides feedback and learning points relevant for internists.
