MedLink Neurology Podcast is delighted to feature selected episodes from BrainWaves, courtesy of James E Siegler MD, its originator and host. BrainWaves is an academic audio podcast whose mission is to educate medical providers through clinical cases and topical reviews in neurology, medicine, and the humanities, and episodes originally aired from 2016 to 2021. Originally released: July 18, 2017 The request for a consult is like calling in a favor. You shouldn't actually expect the consultant to do it; you should be polite and helpful in all the ways your grandmother expects you to behave. At least, that's the courtesy I've seen from really spectacular providers. In this week's episode, we review the proper etiquette for calling a consult, and you'll also hear some pearls on the workup for altered mental status. BrainWaves podcasts and online content are intended for medical education only and should not be used to guide medical decision-making in routine clinical practice. REFERENCES: None this week. (Sorry!) We believe that the principles expressed or implied in the podcast remain valid, but certain details may be superseded by evolving knowledge since the episode’s original release date.
