The Joy and Challenge of Simple Medicine in India
BY KATE BANKS, MDThe Himalayan Health Exchange (HHE) is an organization that assembles volunteers and health care providers from all over the world to deliver care in underserved areas in northern India.

Our convoy of interpreters, cooks, volunteers, and health care profess...

Jellybean 82; Extraordinary tales of ordinary heroism. An Iraqi Story.
The best thing about making the jellybeans is that I get to meet some thoroughly excellent people.

Wesam is a consultant intensivist at the Austin Hospital. That is a pretty good job. It’s a very good hospital and most of us would be very h...

As my graduating peers and I embark on our medical careers, it’s a fitting time to consider which medical careers we actually desire. I’ve always had a strong sense of direction for the specialty path I wish to pursue, but at times, like now, I flirt with the idea of pursuing other avenues. It is an important issue that deserves deliberate consideration as it’s what most of us will dedicate the lion’s share of our lives to.
Is being a “specialist in life” as a GP ...

Better people make better doctors
What does society expect of today’s doctor? More importantly, what does today’s doctor expect of themselves? How can we become better doctors? An overview with Tane Eunson
The expectations modern society places on doctors are explored in the ‘good samaritan’ case of Dekker vs Medical Board of WA, where a doctor was called to account for ‘improper conduct in a professional respect’ when she didn’t stop to lend urgent medical assistance at a motor vehicle accident. This post examines how today’s doctors are judged with respect to ‘professionalism’ and how those notions have changed over time. It is th...

Expedition and Wilderness Medicine
Guest post Dr Edi Albert – Associate Professor, Remote and Polar Medicine at the University of Tasmania. Director, Wilderness Education Group
These two nearly synonymous terms refer broadly to the practice of medicine in austere and remote environments. The former term suggests a “journey with a purpose”, whether scientific, humanitarian, or recreational. The latter terms suggests an environment “undisturbed by human activity”. Either way, a pretty cool way to practice medicine.
It is within this context that we can identify three broad aspects to expedition and wilderness medicine: pre-departure preparation ...

Healthcare Update Satellite — 09-15-2014
This study should be required reading in every emergency medicine residency in this country. In fact, the concepts in the studies should be tested on the emergency medicine board exams.
Now if the study only compared the type of a patient’s insurance with the likelihood of emergency department recidivism.
How else can the media try to tarnish this guy’s reputation? The doctor who oversaw Joan Rivers’ fatal endoscopy was once *sued* 10 years ago. Gasp.
The former patient’s attorneys are really trying to create their 15 minutes of fame. They alleged that 10 years ago the patient received no informed ...

Issue 5 (Vol. 25) of Emergency Medicine Australasia published online on 6 October 2013
Emergency medicine training for interns (#FOAMed)
The contemporary growth in medical graduates in Australia is resulting in increasing demands for postgraduate training placements. Two editorials consider the impact on emergency medicine (EM) training for junior doctors, where supervisory capacity in ED’s represents a potential “bottleneck”. Brazil (@SocraticEM) and Mitchell (@robdmitchell) argue that the emphasis for ED-based intern rotations should focus on quality, even if this m...
