I thought I had totally been defeated until I actually played this screencast and heard Matt admit that he had just recently resorted to femoral vein access not once but TWICE.<br />I had to pick myself off the floor!<br />What honesty!<br />I therefore claim victory and declare that even chief residents at times may resort to femoral vein access when push comes to shove.<br />By the way congratulations on the speaker award at ICEP.rfdsdochttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13919495080954427480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3339915911356078232.post-65851805636827328392012-06-11T14:32:55.664-04:002012-06-11T14:32:55.664-04:00Matt's too humble to brag that he won the youn...Matt's too humble to brag that he won the young speaker award at this year's ICEP with this talkmdawarehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11511273712090189564noreply@blogger.com
