I am applying anesthesia. I am required by my school to do an acting internship and will be doing it in something that is not anesthesia because there
Title sums it up. I'm paranoid about this because when we all applied ot medical school there were pre med requirements. For residency, I feel there are no rotation requirements but I guess I'm still paranoid.
Essentially will be doing an acting internship in the intensive care unit. Currently it is scheduled in September before I submit ERAS. I want to do it the March or April of my 4th year instead so that I can put a lighter rotation in September so that I have more time to do my ERAS...

Alternate Site for PICU Fellowship Training
Hey all,
For some PICU fellowship programs, you rotate for a few months at a hospital that has something they don’t have at their primary training site (e.g. MGHfc doing CICU at Boston Children’s, UChicago doing CICU at Oak Lawn, UBuffalo doing CICU at UPMC).
While this is great for training, I’m curious as to how long of a way this goes when looking for jobs/further fellowship training in cardiac intensive care? I’m unsure if this model is beneficial or disadvantageous. Would one be more...

Intravenous Vitamin C in Adults with Sepsis in the Intensive Care Unit

In direct opposition to Marik's position a few years ago. Interesting to see it actually increased mortality and persistent organ dysfunction. (Source: Student Doctor Network)

Genetics/congenital heart disease in PICU vs. NICU?
Hi everyone! I'm a peds resident leaning towards a career in intensive care, either a Pediatric Critical Care or Neonatology fellowship. I have academic interests in genetic/metabolic conditions and congenital heart disease (e.g. "Terrible Ts," Pompe disease, Williams syndrome, Turner syndrome). I've ruled out peds cardiology because I want to work in the inpatient setting exclusively, ruled out PEM because I only want to care for the sickest patients.
However, given the limited time I've...

Disadvantages.
I realize this is probably a semi-unusual topic... but what are the disadvantages to joining AMEDD as a reservist mid-career? Like, I'm going up for a tenure position (which I'll get), which in my field (pediatric intensive care) is quite rare, but it is kinda unsatisfying. For those who don't know, tenure is mostly a BS position that doesn't really mean anything except they can't fire you for reason "X" and if you get an endowed chair... you get a pot of money to do whatever (I'm not that...

They served on the COVID-19 front lines. Now these emergency medicine doctors can't find jobs.

But when Khan went home, he didn’t rest much. Instead, he would turn to his quest to find a job for when he graduates this spring. He would spend hours scouring online...

Happy Holidays SDN Anesthesiologists #Case_05
Dear All,
I hope you are doing well, it has been a year since my last post where I told you about passing my 1st year residency exam (like ABA) here in Iraq where I am now a third year resident in Anesthesia and Intensive Care / Iraqi Board. It has been a tough year for all of us, and for me since Covid hits Iraq, we worked very hard to contain the crisis especially with a weak and devastated health system, it wasn't easy at all, we have lost so many doctors in Iraq and well known...
