Procedure Videos Online
I wanted to highlight the NEJM’s new (well, 6 months old) internet feature, Videos In Clinical Medicine. You ought to be able to access these videos after logging into the Sinai library (with MSSM-ID and life number) and then heading over the NEJM’s recent videos page.
Many of the videos feature the work of Gary Setnik, MD, an early figure in EM. The most recent one (from Oct 26th, Vol 355, No. 17) is on basic laceration repair – so maybe it’s something you can show to your beleaguered 4th year med student while you’re busy with other things. Other videos may be more relevant to us, including thoracentesis, LP, A-line placement, and knee arthrocentesis. The videos can also be downloaded in formats for Palm OS, Windows, and iPod.
Clinicalcases.org, a very useful collection of links, videos, simulators and more, also has a page full of procedure video links, as well as some physical exam videos that may be worth brushing up on.
If you’re aware of any other good online resources like this, let me know or share ‘em with Ted, who’s compiled a list of his own.
