    Loved the article/More of a clinical what to do if persistent tachycardia than how to hyper document to avoid a successful lawsuit/at least that’s my perspective after 14 years of retirtement in ER medicine

    Very nice article. My colleagues hate the smell of our ER, but I can’t resist taking the shoes and socks off all my patients looking for rotten feet. This is a commonly missed part of our skin examination and the causes of more than a few ‘occult’ sepsis cases!

    Shout out to Dr Bedolla, my mentor 25 years ago!
