I wonder how long it would take someone to read this thread in its entirety...starting from post 1.
 
You don't have to stop when you're vacation. You could be like CodeBlu and keep posting 😀

Exactly. It's called DEDICATION.

Also, neuroticism... I refresh my e-mail every 5 minutes on this thing.

I'm getting obscenely fast at typing on this bitch.
 
And blu is kind of french-y.

Y'all don't even know your own history?? Santa Anna was the Mexican general who defeated Texas at the Alamo in 1836. For shame.

Everyone knows Colorado is the best state. That's why so many people move here from both Texas AND Cali.

:laugh:



A friend at work was telling me a story about her soon-to-be daughter in-law. the daughter in law was with her mom and said something that would require a TWSS response, well the mom incorrectly said "she said that" instead. so now this lady at work says "she said that" as a joke instead of TWSS. :laugh:
 
i'm too busy with fb chat to be bothered here.
 
my internet keeps me from spamming

but even a crappy internet couldn't keep me from top. Cause I'm a BOSS!

Just had an interesting convo with my uncle... who's a physician.

BTW, didn't get to see that heart transplant. Didn't work out. Oh well.

But, just to re-affirm how much I hate lawyers... we talked about malpractice in France and how it is almost non-existent due to the system.

Here are some points on how to answer bad questions from slimy lawyer scum from the following thread...

Once you receive notice that you are being named in a suit ... DO NOT contact the patient suing you (or their family). DO NOT contact the attorney suing you. The attorney is representing his/her client and will not drop you just because he/she is a nice person. When you first find out, immediately contact your malpractice insurance carrier OR the hospital's risk management team. They will advise you on what to do and what not to do. Another advice: your lawyer is the expert on the law, not you. Whether you like it or not, it's no longer in the realm of "medicine" but medico-legal where hindsight is 30/20 (yes, not a typo).

During deposition, your lawyer will hopefully prepare you for "tricky" questions. Here is a few examples (taken from the journal Medical Economics June 3, 2005 issue). A good attorney by your side will hopefully protect and prepare you for some of these questions.


1. The double negative question - "Is it true that you didn't tell the patient that her shortness of breath wasn't significant?"

If you answer, "No," does that mean you didn't tell her, or that it wasn't significant? With such questions, it may not be clear what a Yes or No answer means. So to avoid adding to the confusion, you might respond: "Let me restate your question to make sure I understand it."

2. The leading question - "What did you do, Doctor, when it became clear to you that your patient was suffering from ..."

The correct response: "I'm not sure that it was clear to me at that time." or "I'm sorry, I don't agree with your premise. Here's why."

3. The guidelines ploy - "Doctor, the following guidelines are authoritative on this issue, aren't they?"

Your response: "Those are just general guidelines for most patients with this condition. But they're not authoritative regarding this particular patient. The reason they don't apply in this case was ..."

4. The dangerous possibility - "Doctor, isn't it possible that the patient could have been suffering from ...?"

Response: "Theoretically that's possible, but I don't believe there was any reasonable likelihood of it in this case"

5. The "just answer Yes or No" approach

If the question is complex or difficult, feel free to say "I can't answer that question with a simple Yes or No. Let me explain why." If you don't understand the question, say so.
