Hello, residents. My name is Mike Estefan. I'm joined today by Maddie Watts, and thank you all for downloading this month's episode of the EM Clerkship podcast. This episode is sponsored by Pearson Ravits Insurance, my personal independent disability insurance agent. We will talk more about Pearson Ravits later in the episode, but for now,

let's get into our case for that today. Maddie, how are you doing? I'm good. How about you,

Mike? I'm doing well. I wanted to give you a small piece of advice for this case before we get

into it, to try to steer things

in the right direction. Are you ready? I think so. So this case is all about the journey. It's

not about the destination, but it's it's about the journey. Okay. Very non-specific and uh cryptic yes yes all right before we

begin do you have any any questions nope i'm ready to go okay ready for the journey the journey

so today is round number 14 of Ready for the journey. The journey.

So today is round number 14 of the game.

Maddie will need to perform today's case in real ABEM oral boards format.

She has 15 minutes to complete the full case and she does not know what this case is ahead of time.

If Maddie hits all of the critical actions that I've listed out beforehand, she wins. If she doesn't or if she performs a dangerous

action, I win. These cases were created by me. They are not derived from actual ABM cases that I

had in my examination and they are not real patients.

Maddie, please take out a piece of paper and a pencil.

Place the paper sideways in front of you, outline a human body on the left side of it,

and let me know when you're ready.

I'm ready to go.

Dr. Watts, this will be a single patient encounter and you will have 15 minutes to complete the entire case. Before we begin, do you have any questions?

Nope.

Okay. Let me start the timer. Timer has been started.

Dr. Watts, you are working a nice sunny day in southeast Pennsylvania. The Phillies just lost
