NICU posting

NICU posting pediatrics 4th yr UKMMC

everyone will be posted there for 2 weeks

two groups per rotation

you yourselves have to choose your own supervisor during the rotation

we have (Prof C & Prof R)

both hv their own pros & cons

your job is to cover all the bed that hv your supervisor name on it

its not much

usually one bed per each student

my advice - cover by the name of the patient NOT bed

they always change bed there

I got prof R

her wardround usually in the morning around 10-11am OR late in the evening (3-4pm)

one wardround everyday

cover your patient- really cover

know the patient & patient MOM history

she definitely much more interested with the mom history

no teaching with her

she likes to asks the preclinical thingy

if she ask you then you dont know... make sure for the next wardround you already read it

she definitely gonna ask again

believe me!!! she remember faces

she likes to ask ...

oxygen desaturation curve & SpO2

incubators

HMF...

& know the common disease inside NICU (anaemia-metabolic bone ds- jaundice- NEC - ARDS - etc)

etc... (whatever inside the guidelines)

lastly...
