AM8819 Table Rounds 8
Table Rounds are conducted in conjunction with the University of Washington Medical School's Anesthesia Pain Service at Harborview Medical Center in Seattle. Students attend formal Table Rounds, which are preview discussions with the Anesthesia Pain Service team regarding approximately 12-25 patients each session. The students, the DAOM supervisor and the biomedical providers decide which patients are baseline candidates for acupuncture. After this, the DAOM students visit the patients and inquire as to whether they are interested in acupuncture treatment that day. For patients who are interested in acupuncture, students conduct a TCM interview and assessment and further determine suitability for acupuncture treatment. The DAOM students obtain consent for the acupuncture procedure from the selected patients. These patients then receive acupuncture treatment during Bastyr's regular DAOM Pain Management rotation (see Internship).
