Grand Rounds
As the Transitional Medicine program is based in the Department of Medicine, the Medicine Grand Rounds schedule is incorporated into the program. This session occurs on Tuesdays from 12p-1p starting September through June. The topics vary depending on the scheduled subspecialty and include all medicine subspecialties as well as areas of Ethics, Hospitalist / General Internal Medicine, and visiting professor Grand Rounds.
Topics that were highlighted this past year include the following:
-
Ultrasonography in the ICU
-
Lyme Disease
-
Update on Anemia
-
HPV Vaccine
-
Neuro-Muscular Movement Disorders
-
Resident of the Year (CPC presentation)
In addition to outside speakers, LVHN Departments often present updates in their specialty to the Medicine staff regarding news and recent literature on pertinent topics. Aside from Medicine Grand Rounds, other Departments also provide Grand Rounds within their specialty, including Surgery as the joint Transitional Medicine sponsoring department.
