I had another one of those shifts yesterday, where several patients came in sick, but I just couldn't figure out precisely what was wrong with them. So, I did the EM thing: stabilized, ordered studies and therapies based on my differential Dx, and admitted them to the floor/PICU/obs.
Today I logged in to see what those REALLY smart inpatient docs had figured out. Basically, this is what I found:
"Hmm, this patient is sick. I'm not sure why. I've added an ESR and continued the care started in the ED."
We're better at medicine than we often give ourselves credit for. Stand up straight and hold your head high.
