Arjun's Residency Blog

3 things I learned from this session:

1. When interpreting laboratory values, we must always factor in the biological variability in patients and make dose adjustments accordingly.
2. Always work up patients in a step wise manner to ensure you have everything covered. This is very important as it allows you to identify the most pressing concerns for the patient from a pharmacy stand point. This allows for effective ranking of the patient’s medical problems and DTPs.
3. In residency, being organized is key! As residents the more organized you are the better off you will be as you will not miss deadlines and will have all of your patient workup information in one place instead of searching for it.
