NEU 45020 - Clinical Neurology-Consultation Service
Cr Hrs: 3, 6 Session Length: 2 and 4 weeks
PD
This is a face to face clinical rotation receiving 3 or 6 credit hours. The student should function with increased autonomy in patient care and must demonstrate competency in several of the Entrustable Professional Activities required for graduation. This course will supplement core training in neurology with exposure to acute neurological conditions on the consultation service. The student will have responsibility for 4-6 patients per week. Responsibility will be graduated and depend on the urgency and complexity of the consultation. Whenever feasible, students will see consults first. They will present the patients to their resident and/or attending on the same day. Students will interact with neuroradiologists, neurosurgeons, and other subspecialists as needed to implement their plan (under the close supervision of the consult resident and attending). They will write the initial consult note and follow-up notes as clinically indicated. The resident or attending will read and cosign all notes. The attending will write a separate consultation note as well. The resident will see all student consults promptly (on the same day as the student). The attending will see the patient within 24 hours of the consultation request. Students will discuss their patients with the resident and attending on a daily basis except weekends. The resident or attending will read and cosign all student notes. The student will supplement his acute neurology experience by attending Neurology clinic once or twice per week. He or she will see 1-3 patients and present these to the resident and/or the attending. All patients will receive separate resident and/or attending notes for these patients. The student will attend resident teaching rounds (held daily during the week), Neurology Grand Rounds, and various other departmental and related seminars (optional).
