M25 Medicine 822Cardiology Subinternship0.0 Unit
Description:The structure and functioning of the Cardiology subinternship is very similar to the General Medicine Subinternship (M25 801 and M25 807). The basic purpose is to develop expertise in the care of hospitalized patients in a well-supervised teaching environment. The majority of patients admitted to the service will have a cardiology diagnosis as the main reason for admission. Some general medical problems will also be seen. All attendings on the service are cardiology subspecialists. Cardiology fellows act as the chief resident for the service on a monthly basis.  Subinterns act as their patients' interns under the supervision of residents and attending physicians. Subinterns have the same on-call and admitting schedules as the interns on their teams and are assigned up to two new patients on each admitting day. Subinterns are not required to spend call nights in the hospital. Except in emergencies, subinterns are the first individuals to evaluate patients admitted to medical service teams. A diagnostic and therapeutic approach to the patient is planned in consultation with the resident. Subinterns assume primary responsibility for the daily care of their patients, under the supervision of resident and attending physicians. This includes evaluation on daily rounds, scheduling and obtaining results of diagnostic studies, planning therapy, making arrangements for care after discharge and communicating with patients and their families. Subinterns attend the same conferences as the internal medicine house staff. There are also several conferences specific to the cardiology service.

Home/Ident

A course may be either a “Home” course or an “Ident” course.

A “Home” course is a course that is created, maintained and “owned” by one academic department (aka the “Home” department). The “Home” department is primarily responsible for the decision making and logistical support for the course and instructor.

An “Ident” course is the exact same course as the “Home” (i.e. same instructor, same class time, etc), but is simply being offered to students through another department for purposes of registering under a different department and course number.

Students should, whenever possible, register for their courses under the department number toward which they intend to count the course. For example, an AFAS major should register for the course "Africa: Peoples and Cultures" under its Ident number, L90 306B, whereas an Anthropology major should register for the same course under its Home number, L48 306B.
