First10EM Journal Club: May 2018

Gday – welcome back! It is podcast time..

It is May and that means another episode of the journal club with Dr. Justin Morgenstern.

This month we cover biases, show our biases about bronchiolitis therapy, cute scrotums, judging and dealing with capacity and how butt-slapping might help you delouse your colleagues….

[DISCLAIMER: we do not recommend that extradural hemorrhage ever be treated with an Ezy-IO drill, it is silly and dangerous.]

If any of that sounds like your deal then have a listen.  If you are super patient and listen all the way through there is a real treat for you….

… a world premiere musical parody song by Dr. Gerry Considine and yours truly. ( we are kinda like Elton & Bernie)

Below is the list of papers that we dissect and discuss on the pod.

Enjoy
