The student will have some responsibility for 15-20 patients per week. The ICU medical student will be responsible for the daily presentation of their patients to the rounding faculty, resident; and multidisciplinary treatment team. The medical students will apprise the treatment team of the patient’s status to include but not limited to hemodynamics, pulmonary, neurological, and infectious conditions. The medical students will identify clinical problems, and present to the team his/her recommendations for intervention. He/she will be responsible for the daily documentation of patient care and the performance of invasive procedures under the supervision of faculty or senior level residents based upon level of competency as assessed by faculty. The medical student will learn the principles of coordinating patient care as well as cost containment in the utilization of ICU resources. All orders written in the ICU by the medical students will be reviewed and co-signed by senior level residents or faculty prior to initiation. Continuous supervision of this rotation will be provided by board certified/eligible surgical intensivist. Daily care of the patients and direction of the medical students and residents will be provided by these same faculty members. The medical students will function in the ICU under the continuous supervision of the surgical critical care ICU resident. This rotation should be considered at the level of that of a sub-internship rotation. Medical students on this rotation will attend the surgical basic science lectures, grand rounds lectures, and surgical M&M conferences. In addition to these conferences the medical student will attend the surgical critical care clinical sciences lecture as well as participate in the critical care morbidity and mortality conference. The medical student may be expected to present morbidities and mortalities that are pertinent to patients that he/she is involved with. The medical student will be on a 24 hour on and a 24 hour off rotating call schedule with the surgical critical care resident that he/she is assigned to on a buddy type system. It is expected that following call, the medical student will be relieved of all clinical responsibilities by 9:00 a.m. and will not assume any further clinical responsibilities until 7:00 a.m. the following day. This should allow more than adequate time for rest, relaxation, and continuing reading and education on an independent basis. |
