M65 Peds 809Pediatric Pulmonary Subinternship0.0 Unit
Description:On the 7100 Respiratory Unit, the subintern is an active member of a multidisciplinary care team, which consists of attending pulmonologist, advanced practice nurses, second-year pediatric residents, unit nurses, and other care providers. The subintern takes responsibility for children with acute and chronic lung diseases admitted to the unit, and in addition, may be responsible for patients with non-respiratory disorders or general pediatric conditions as well. The student will be co-managed and directly supervised by senior pediatric residents and attending physician in the daily care of patients. The rotation is structured to provide students with a clinical experience to allow them to gain exposure to the breadth of repiratory diseases seen at St. Louis Children's Hospital. The volume of patients on the 7100 Respiratory Unit and number covered by the subintern varies. He or she will typically be responsible for the care of two to six patients at any given time, and will be exposed to children with wide-ranging lung diseases and breathing disorders, such as asthma, cystic fibrosis, bronchopulmonary dysplasia, bronchiolitis, pneumonia, chronic respiratory insufficiency, and congenital lung anomalies during this rotation. The student will also have the opportunity to participate in tests and procedures essential to the practice of pulmonary medicine, including pulmonary function studies, flexible bronchoscopy, and overnight polysomnography. Subinterns do not have evening coverage responsibilities, and weekend responsibilities are limited to two days during the four-week block. They are strongly encouraged to attend departmental and divisional conferences.

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.
