Acep Frontline - Emergency Medicine

Today on ACEP Frontline we’re talking interrogations. In a community hospital setting, it can be tough to get a pacemaker or ICD interrogated in a timely fashion after hours or on the weekends. Dr. Neuenschwander is doing some great research looking into the ED providers doing their own interrogations in a fraction of the time it would take to get a rep in. According to him, it’s all about improving patient care as well as the specialty of Emergency Medicine.
