My day as an intern on trauma surgery: managing the trauma floor, codes in the ICU, and a nice thoracotomy in the ED. I sewed up the man's chest before he was brought to the morgue. Might be my favorite rotation of intern year.

(7/x) One often overlooked tool to determine the hemodynamic impact of rapid Afib - an arterial line.

If there are periods where the ECG shows rapid ventricular response but the arterial line does not show corresponding pulsatility, this means that the rapidity of the Afib is likely impacting hemodynamics.

In this case, there are only ~13 heart beats in this strip for 33 ECG beats - thus only ~ 1 in 3 cardiac cycles result in ejection.

Here, Afib is almost certainly either a contributor or perhaps even sole driver of hypotension.

Also notice the narrow pulse pressure, another indicator of low stroke volume.

Realizing I made it through med school never once buying a pair of scrubs 😂

My therapy. 🏀 Hooping with the guys at the @TCU rec over the last 4 years has gotten me through the stress of med school. Lifelong friendships formed on this court!!

@CollinBraithw8 Thanks brotha! You as well!

[Noah Embry MD @NoahEmbrydoc]

@BayatonAJ Great program. Have fun!

[Noah Embry MD @NoahEmbrydoc]

@amack1976 It's becoming almost the norm, yeah, since ortho has gotten so competitive

Last month I had the great opportunity to present my 4-year research project at American College of Surgeons 2023 Clinical Congress in Boston. They opened up an Orthopedics branch and are in the process of growing it. Fantastic experience to be a part of!!

@nick_pettinelli 4) Ortho Anki deck can help a ton for random pimp questions.
5) Try to be as extroverted as you can (within reason) to really get to know the residents and attendings. Building a connection with someone can really help your chances.
6) Sleep as much as you can!

[Noah Embry MD @NoahEmbrydoc]

@nick_pettinelli 1) Be on time (obvious but can be harder than you think when you're in a new city).
2) Treat the rotation as a month-long interview, some programs will truly use the rotation as this in place of a formal interview.
3) Hoppenfield's for prepping for cases. This book is incredible.

Interesting and concerning…

[Jon Roegele @MLBPlayerAnalys]

Percentage of MLB pitchers* who have had Tommy John surgery, by season:

2016: 27.4%
2017: 25.9%
2018: 28.5%
2019: 30.8%
2020: 32.0%
2021: 32.0%
2022: 34.4%
2023: 35.3%

* pitchers who pitched in MLB or spent entire season on MLB IL, not including position players pitching

@allisonoconn To me it’s an incredible honor and probably the most fascinating study rather than horrifying

[Noah Embry MD @NoahEmbrydoc]

@aly_skoczek This is so true.

[Noah Embry MD @NoahEmbrydoc]

Campbell Clinic is amazing as you can feel the history here. Dr. Campbell brought Orthopedics here from his studies in London and Vienna in 1909. It’s an honor to rotate here!

The 2023 Rangers have faced a position player 11 times this year, a NEW MAJOR LEAGUE RECORD

Had a blast on Arthroplasty rotation at Texas Hip and Knee 👍🏼
