20 in 6 Presentations 2017

Every year, up to fifteen residents compete in the event with spirited 6-minute talks about anything in emergency medicine that strikes their fancy. A panel of four judges, all well-known lecturers and emergency medicine leaders in their own right, give honest feedback to the competitors and determine the top two winners. The audience gets a chance to vote, too, by rewarding the coveted “People’s Choice” award.

Case Study: Pediatric GI Bleed With Meckel’s Diverticulum Diagnosis

Pediatric GI bleeding is a somewhat uncommon presentation to the emergency department. Disposition is critical for the pediatric patient with a suspected GI bleed. In the unwell-appearing child regardless of age: Resuscitate! For the pediatric patient with a GI bleed: Think worst first! Serious causes can be difficult to distinguish at first, so stay vigilant.
