Description from DukeHub
(1) Course Goals: To introduce senior medical students to the diagnostic and treatment issues encountered on the consultative neurology service. (2) How Goals Are Achieved: The student becomes part of the inpatient neurology consultation team either at Duke Hospital or the Durham VA Medical Center. This team consists of rotating neurology faculty as well as a neurology and/or medicine house officer. Consultations are performed by the student under the guidance of the house staff and then are presented to the attending on rounds. The student is responsible for performing a neurologic history and physical as well as assisting in the interpretation of all-important laboratory data. The student continues to follow the patient's course as required. The student also attends rounds when other patients are presented by the house officers. Appropriate reading material is utilized to compliment the clinical experience. Attendance at Neurology Grand Rounds and various Neurologic Subspecialty Conferences is required. (3) Method of Evaluation: Standard written evaluation by faculty supervisor with house staff input. VA student credentialing is required prior to registration. Permission is required. Credit: 4.
