Well here we are on call @ Teaching Hospital USA
Up at some ungodly hour, trying to convince someone that they need a treatment, when they aren’t really interested. What’s with people coming to a hospital, asking for help, then not being interested in what you have to say?
So far, not too too many admissions, a couple of post procedure pts, couple of R/O MIs or “Romys” as they are often called.
Just hope I can stay awake a bit longer so I can convince some poor lady she needs her Fresh Frozen Plasma so she won’t bleed out into her abdomen!
Quiet today, on the code blue front tonight… just a couple of false alarms.
Well, at least with these new ACGME 80 hour work week rules, calls have been slightly less painful! Wonder when I’ll get to go home and crash…
