Episode 18 - Geriatrics

This week we review Dr.Ken Milne's podcast, the Skeptics Guide to Emergency Medicine new feature - Hot off the Press. It's all about geriatric falls, y'all. Then, we delve into core content pearls on the geriatrics using Rosenalli (Rosen's Emergency Medicine and Tintinalli's Emergency Medicine: A Comprehensive Review Guide).  We review polypharmacy, abdominal pain, and other key pearls. As always, visit foamcast.org for show notes and the generously donated Rosh Review questions. Thanks y'all! -Jeremy Faust and Lauren Westafer

Om Podcasten

We believe in the educational merits of Free Open Access Medical education (FOAM), which includes podcasts, blogs, articles on PubMed Central, conferences streamed for free and more. As a result, we would like to encourage others to move beyond quoting podcasts and into the realm of tying “cutting edge” FOAM to the core content. We’ll provide some review and references for listeners to go read. Why, indeed, should we FOAM it alone when FOAM can inspire us to go, read, think, and be excellent?
