How to Save a Life...

The other day Beth heard from a friend from residency who is now practicing up in Alaska. She was attending a Pediatric Hospitalist Conference and one of the talks she went to was "Top 10 articles in Pediatric Hospital Medicine". Beth's article which was published in Pediatrics last year (you can read the article here) was one of the articles presented because it was felt that it would change the way that pediatric medicine is practiced. Beth was excited and amazed that people actually read the article, since she usually throws her medical journals away.

How was it presented when the authors weren't at the conference? I want to know more (because of the hospital in which it was published).

They used puppets to re-enact it.
