Welcome back to Episode 14! After a short break for Jeff’s honeymoon, we are back this week with more high-quality review. We have weekly episodes in the works to keep you motivated. Take note of a small change to the format this week – after each question, you will hear a one-second pause to contemplate the answer or to pause the podcast to give you even more time. We made this change in response to listener feedback; keep more feedback coming to Roshcast@roshreview.com.

Consider pausing the podcast briefly and quizzing yourself as you are listening. Do not forget to check out the blog for the other episodes as well as a few new Rosh Quizzes. Lastly, learn some tricks from the high-scoring test-taker Ryan Ribeira, MD.

RoshQuiz Answer 1.2
According to Godwin et al., during procedural sedation and analgesia, a nurse or other qualified individual should be present for continuous monitoring of the patient, in addition to the provider performing the procedure.
RoshQuiz Question 1.2
Question: In patients undergoing procedural sedation and analgesia in the emergency department, what is the minimum number of personnel necessary to manage complications?
RoshQuiz Answer 1.1
According to Godwin et al., do not delay procedural sedation in adults or pediatric patients in the ED based on fasting time. No reduction in risk of emesis or aspiration has been shown with any fasting duration. This is a Level B recommendation.
