Medical School for Everyone - Emergency Medicine - Great Courses


The Great Courses Medical School for Everyone: Emergency Medicine In each lesson, the viewer tries to figure out what is wrong with each person while attempting to triage multiple patients. The course is a good guide to practical problems solving and challenging initial assumptions. The tunnel vision that can result from making a diagnosis to early can have negative consequences for patient outcomes. 

People in the ER will lie or not tell the whole truth.  This makes it difficult for the doctor and nursing staff to properly diagnose and treat their patient.  The ER doctor does not usually have a long term relationship with the ER patient. They therefore need to follow a general protocol to assess the patient to assure that they get proper medical care.
