Grand Rounds Vol 3, No 31
This week, Grand Rounds is located at Med Valley High where our host, Liana, leads us on a journey through the medical cosmos.
I particularly enjoyed the letter to the producers of medical devices by Diabetes Mine - its a bugbear of mine, seeing patients (especially kids) with chronic illnesses carry ugly-looking medical paraphernalia. Why can't inhalers come in 'Buzz Lightyear' and 'Power Rangers'? I'm sure more of my teenaged diabetic girls would be more compliant if they could carry insulin pens that were pink and encrusted with crystals.
And while we're on the subject of encouraging compliance with medical treatment, check this discovery by Dr Deb Serani - a Nintendo therapy game!
