Some Of The Things We Do In Med School

Yesterday afternoon, my class of 160 students was subdivided to 6 groups. Each group was tasked to tackle a specific issue concerning the topic at hand - rational antibiotic use. Antibiotics are among the most abused and misused drugs in the world and the consequences of such lapses in judgment contribute to a growing global problem. Not only does it increase costs on the patient’s part, it also makes more disease-causing organisms more resistant and harder to treat.
Here are five second-rate recordings of the group presentations. I was in group 2 and we were assigned to think of ways to promote rational antibiotic prescription from the perspective of a physician. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to record the first group’s presentation. They had to do it from the position of a patient and they did a very nifty Starwars-inspired skit. Sorry guys.
The rest of the assignments were as follows:
Group 2 - Physician
Group 3 - NGO/ Community Leader
Group 4 - Media Personalities
Group 5 - Allied Medical Professionals
Group 6 - PGH DirectorWhich one is your favorite?! :p Sorry about the quality.The videos were shot using a paltry SE w800i. hehe

Pretty nice presentation! I actually wanted to study med but since I wanted to be more popular I opted filming instead. Hehehehe
In the Philippines, you can combine both! haha

Susuportahan kita dyan! Papahiramin pa kita ng books! Hehe
Diba mahirap ang med? Buti may time ka pa po magblog? ^_^
Classes just started.
That’s a creative way of promoting rational antibiotic use. What we had to do before was to just make the report in front of the consultants, and then, of course, the usual drill of questions and more questions until we ran out of brain juice. Haha.
[...] like what was repeatedly emphasized in the five class presentations that I’ve posted earlier, it’s in our best interest to promote and observe rational [...]
