ACP Clinical Vignette Competition Results
On February 13th, the Residency Program held its annual ACP clinical vignette competition for residents and medical students. Fourteen residents and four medical students participated. All of the presentations were excellent again this year, making judging very difficult, however the judges chose these winners:
Students:
1st place: Anne T. Wilson – Anaphylactic Transfusion Reaction: A Rare Transfusion ComplicationResidents:
1st place:
Oussama Lawand
Pancreatitis Polyarthritis Panniculitis2nd place:
Shinkai Hakimi
Connecting the Dots … A Case of Palpable Purpura
The winners will be invited to present their cases at Grand Rounds (April 23 for the Medical Students and June 18 for the Residents), and Oussama and Shinkai will represent us by presenting their cases at the ACP Chapter Meeting (March 27-28).
Please congratulate all who participated and did an outstanding job. It’s clear that a lot of work went into the presentations (which were excellent) and reminded the judges that we see some very interesting cases at the University of Iowa!
