Links to useful podcasts for residents and students rotating on nephrology

Michael Eastman sent me this list of podcasts. He send out an e-mail to residents at the beginning of a nephrology rotation so that residents and students can use their windshield time to brush up their nephrology skills.


Hi all:

I wanted to pass along a compilation of nephrology-related podcasts that I’ve been sharing with the residents.  I find them quite entertaining (and educational!).  Feel free to listen or share with the residents as well, since I usually don’t come on service until halfway through their rotation.  All are quite good.  My favorites are the ones on hyperkalemia and hyponatremia.  The ones on dialysis and transplant are also very good.  Finally, check out all 3 of the links at the bottom from the EMCrit website.
