Novel Emergency Medicine Curriculum Utilizing Self-Directed Learning and the Flipped Classroom Method: Head, Eyes, Ears, Nose and Throat Emergencies Small Group Module

Andrew King, MD*, Paul Crawford *, Christopher San Miguel, MD*, Michael Barrie, MD*, Sandra Spencer, MD^, Alyssa Tyransky* and Nicholas Kman, MD*

DOI: https://doi.org/10.21980/J8PW5N Issue 2:4 No ratings yet.
We aim to teach the presentation and management of HEENT emergencies through the creation of a flipped classroom design. This unique, innovative curriculum utilizes resources chosen by education faculty and resident learners, study questions, real-life experiences, and small group discussions in place of traditional lectures. In doing so, a goal of the curriculum is to encourage self-directed learning, improve understanding and knowledge retention, and improve the educational experience of our residents.

Oropharynx Ulceration

Lauren Sylwanowicz, MD* and Andrew Wong, MD, MBA*

DOI: https://doi.org/10.21980/J87W60 Issue 2:4 No ratings yet.
The photograph demonstrates an area of ulcerative tissue at the left palatine tonsil without surrounding erythema or purulent drainage. The computed tomography (CT) scan shows a large ulceration of the left soft palate and palatine tonsil (red arrow). There is no evidence of skull base osteomyelitis. There is suppurative lymphadenopathy with partial left jugular vein compression due to mass effect (yellow highlight). There is mild nasopharyngeal airway narrowing with architectural distortion (blue arrow), but no other evidence of airway obstruction.

Acute Necrotizing Ulcerative Gingivitis (ANUG)

Nicholas E. Kman, MD* and Vinny P. Kumar, MD*

DOI: https://doi.org/10.21980/J8S88H Issue 2:2 No ratings yet.
Physical examination revealed inflamed gingiva, ulceration, and soft tissue necrosis (Image 1) along with mandibular lymphadenopathy (not shown). Given her symptoms, poor oral care, and her immunocompromised state, she was given a diagnosis of Acute Necrotizing Ulcerative Gingivitis (ANUG) or Vincent’s Angina.

Infectious Mononucleosis: Pharyngitis and Morbilliform Rash

Eric McCoy, MD, MPH* and Amal Shafi, BS*

DOI: https://doi.org/10.21980/J88C7H Issue 2:2 No ratings yet.
Her physical exam was significant for bilateral tonsillar exudates, cervical lymphadenopathy, and a morbilliform rash that included the palms (Figure 1-4). Laboratory testing was significant for white blood cell (WBC) count of 16.5 thous/mcl with an elevation in absolute lymphocytes of > 10 thous/mcl. The monospot and EBV (Epstein-Barr virus) panel were positive.
