Ashman Phenomenon

Ashman phenomenon is an aberrant ventricular conduction due to a change in QRS cycle length. In 1947, Gouaux and Ashman reported that in atrial fibrillation, when a relatively long cycle was followed by a relatively short cycle, the beat with a short cycle often has right bundle-branch block (RBBB) morphology.1 This causes diagnostic confusion with premature ventricular complexes (PVCs). If a sudden lengthening of the QRS cycle occurs, the subsequent impulse with a normal or shorter cycle length… Continue

Headache

A headache is pain or discomfort in the head, scalp, or neck. Serious causes of headaches are extremely rare. Most people with headaches can feel much better by making lifestyle changes, learning ways to relax, and occasionally by taking medications.
Causes

Tension headaches are due to tight, contracted muscles in your shoulders, neck, scalp, and jaw. They are often related to stress, depression, or anxiety. Overworking, not getting enough sleep, missing meals, and using alcohol or street drugs… Continue

An Overview of the New Maintenance of Certification (MOC) Process

Beginning in January 2008, ABOG introduced the new Maintenance of Certification also known as MOC. Anyone who became board certified from 1986 onwards is obligated to complete this process if they wish to maintain their license.

This process contains 4 parts:

1) Proof of good professional standing. This comprises an ABOG generated computer search of all state licenses held by the candidate, looking for limitations or revocation

2) The Lifetime Education or Annual Board Recertification (ABC) w… Continue

Residency Programs NOT preparing candidates for their final oral board exam

What are the criteria to assess the success of an OBGYN residency program? CREOG scores, Written or Oral board pass rates, residency drop out rate, departmental income generation?

Residency programs have a vested interest in their residents passing the written OB/GYN board exam. Reason: if they have a low collective percentage pass rate by their residents, they run the risk of losing their residency program status. This can have a major impact on faculty recruitment and departmental income.

Is… Continue

Helping Residents prepare for CREOG and Written OB/GYN Board Exam

Primary concerns for OB/GYN residents can be regarded as:

1) Learning the practice of OB/GYN

2) Being adequately prepared to pass the CREOG exam and OB/GYN Written Board exam


This article discusses the latter consideration. While it is the residency program’s responsibility to provide much of the above, there are certain areas that are the sole domain of the candidate, and many residency programs will not provide this to their residents. What are these areas? Success in the CREOG and written… Continue

Top 10 Medical Breakthroughs of 2008

1. First Neurons Created from ALS Patients

President-elect Obama has pledged to lift the seven-year ban on federal funding for embryonic stem-cell research — a boon for the field. But for some scientists, it almost doesn't matter. Researchers at Harvard and Columbia reported a milestone experiment in July, using a new method — one that doesn't require embryos at all — to generate the first motor neurons from stem cells in two elderly women with Lou Gehrig's disease, or ALS.
