October 2018 - Pharyngitis Part 2




Arizona EMCast show

Summary: Happy October Everyone!   With the dangers of pharyngitis covered last month, Brian and I have left the scariest sore throat of them all to now. It’s a disease that strikes without warning, leaves a wake of decimated organs behind it . . . but is pretty easily defeated by penicillin. The fearsome, the horrific . . . Strep Throat!    Ok, it’s not that exciting, but it is common. SUPER common. And everyone will ask you about it for the rest of your career. So are you gonna test? Are you gonna treat? Are you gonna take the time to talk to patients about what will actually make them feel better? That and more on this month’s episode of AZEMCast.   The AZEMCast Team   Email: aleetch@aemrc.arizona.edu Twitter: @arizonaemcast   https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/arizona-emcast/id685439303?mt=2https://azemcast.podbean.com/feed/
