"Six Docs" is a collaborative effort by the six AAEM Sections providing a fun, fresh take on a traditional lecture. Follow Dr. Calhoun as she works her way through a traumatic shift, taking care of a crashing pregnant patient, aided by her specialist colleagues. Each section will provide a "breakout" lecture on a topic related to the hot topic du jour-- abortion care in the ED -- meant to help Dr. Calhoun (and you) take better care of the patient at hand. While each section will speak on a topic closely related to their section goals, the content will be applicable to all EM docs taking care of pregnant patients, from pre-hospital care to final disposition and beyond.
