Greetings from the USF family here. It’s been an exciting time as the new interns have settled in, completing their boot camp and ultrasound training like pros. This year, we were able to bring back the resident retreat and welcomed everyone with some BBQ, kayaking, and lake house views, which was a huge hit and likely back on the annual calendar of events.

When our residents weren’t resting up for the year ahead, they took to the streets to help provide essential medical care to some of our most needy patients in the community. This is always a great way to give back to the community we all love down here.

We’re also excited to share that through the awesome research of our residents, we’ve been able to implement extended cardiac monitoring for our low risk palpitation and syncope patients, and they’ve already helped diagnose arrhythmias that otherwise might have gone unnoticed.

As always, we invite you to follow along with us at our blog: tampaemergencymedicine.org. ■
