A simple, round table with a desktop computer and a projector, where the patient and the doctor have their friendly chat. Whenever an examination is necessary, they cross the “blue line” in the room indicating the “boundaries of the clinic” elegantly. It’s definitely not rocket science, but the patient satisfaction index is soaring. What’s the secret?

Jellybean 061 with Craig Wylie of BadEM
Discussions in Emergency Medicine”. Sounds good. Is Good! It is conspicuous for the multiple different professionals that contribute; when I spoke to Craig BadEM had 3 paramedics, one medical student and one doctor. (That was Kat Evans; see Jellybean 044) Since then they have added another emergency physician with a strong cardiology interest and an paediatrician. This is a multi-disciplinary game after all.
Emergency Medicine is a different beast in different countries and in South Africa it is a quite an impressive beast indeed. A big beast. With big teeth!. It is the trauma that we all hear about but the resources, t...

Antimicrobial Resistance: Where to from Here?
Conclusion
Newer tools capable of informing these early decisions are under development, but integrating an awareness of AMR into both hospital and GP practice is a key component of winning the fight against superbugs. Throughout the development process, discussion between clinicians and researchers will ensure that diagnostic tools are effective, and also meet the needs of frontline staff.
In the mean-time, cultivating an AMR aware mind-set is the best defence against over-prescription. Understanding and accepting the systematic, ubiquitous biases which affect our judgement of risk is particularly helpful. For example, do...

Ready for a laugh? We take two fast-talking and sleep-deprived Irish people and lock them in a shed. They talk. Fast. They tackle the big issues. From Nursing Home Patients in Emergency Departments to the great Sectarian Potato Snack debate. (Try to guess who had had coffee and who hadn’t.)

As my graduating peers and I embark on our medical careers, it’s a fitting time to consider which medical careers we actually desire. I’ve always had a strong sense of direction for the specialty path I wish to pursue, but at times, like now, I flirt with the idea of pursuing other avenues. It is an important issue that deserves deliberate consideration as it’s what most of us will dedicate the lion’s share of our lives to.
Is being a “specialist in life” as a GP ...
