Hey guys,

I am starting my sub-I at a hospital I want to eventually match into... but I havent had much experience with admission notes.... does any know any good sources/mnemonics that interns or sub-Is for admissions? Or does anyone know any good sources I should read before starting my sub-I so i can look like a star?

any info/advice would be appreciated! thanks!

Talk to residents/attendings/fourth year students to get specific advice from them too. It takes more than notes and orders to do well on a subI. Good luck!
 
I like ADC VANDALISM.

Admit to
Diagnosis
Condition
Vitals
Activity
Nursing
Diet
Allergies
Labs
IVF
Studies
Meds

Hope this helps.

I've seen people use this mnemonic as ADV VANDISMAL and it drives me nuts because vandalism is an anagram of vandismal and has the added benefit of, ya know, being a real word.
