Description

We cover a post by Dr. Seth Trueger (@MDaware) on
false positives in the urine drug screen and review limitations
of this test. 
Then we review some toxicology, including toxicity associated
with cocaine and PCP using Rosen's Emergency Medicine (8e) and
Tintinalli's (8e) as a guide.

Thanks for listening!

We review a cutting edge a Free Open Access Medical Education (FOAM) blog or podcast and then delve into the Emergency Medicine Core Content texts on relevant issues and end with free board review questions. We believe in the educational merits of Free Open Access Medical education (FOAM), which includes podcasts, blogs, articles on PubMed Central, conferences streamed for free and more. As a result, we would like to encourage others to move beyond quoting podcasts and into the realm of tying “cutting edge” FOAM to the core content. Why, indeed, should we FOAM it alone when FOAM can inspire us to go, read, think, and be excellent? Thanks for listening, Jeremy Faust and Lauren Westafer
