  • Welcome to EM WIT - Emergency Medicine: What is That?

    In this EMJC spinoff series, we'll be addressing important topics that you should probably know about, but might not, and might be too afraid to ask. These episodes will all be 5-10 minute quick-hits on high yield topics such as this episode's topic - how to become an EM doctor. These won't be cased-based like the classic EMJC episodes you've come to know and love, but we think they will be just as helpful.

    In this episode we talk about the path to becoming an Emergency Physician, emphasizing the residency application process. We hope this helps out anyone who is considering going into Emergency Medicine no matter what stage in life you're at now. You can find some important useful links below on the ERAS residency application timeline and how to become and EM doctor.

    Learn about an important etiology of syncope. See spoilers below if you want to know which one Podcast: Approach to  Syncope - EM Clerkship PodcastWarning: this is not an educational episode (but it should be fun SURPRISE!)

    As 2020 comes to a close, we bring you our final episode of the year, officially ending our first season of EMJC Cast. Kyle (MS4) leads his college friends Ari, Conor, and Curtis, none of whom are medical students, through a case of a male presenting after a syncopal episode. Arman (MS4) helps out as Nurse Barb. We wanted to have some fun at the end of the year and see how some non-medical people can handle a medical simulation case, so this episode will be a lot less educational than others, but hopefully a bit more fun. A big thanks to Ari, Conor, and Curtis for joining us this week, and a bigger thanks to Nurse Barb (Arman) for putting up with them. How would you approach this case? As always, we learn a couple very important points about evaluating and treating syncope. If you have any questions, concerns, or comments, please email us at [email protected]
