Dear readers,<br />
Contents<br />
This activity report is our attempt to update<br />
you on the remarkable productivity of our<br />
Department of <strong>Em</strong>ergency <strong>Med</strong>icine. We<br />
believe this document shows the vitality and<br />
passion of our faculty, residents, and ED<br />
staff, as well as their fondness towards and<br />
support of HCMC .<br />
As the editor of this report, I ask that you<br />
please forgive me for any inaccuracies that<br />
may be present in these pages. We have<br />
tried our best to get everything right, but it is<br />
likely that we have misrepresented, forgotten<br />
or ignored at least something. Any mistakes<br />
are likely to be ones of omission, and once I<br />
learn of them, I will include them the next<br />
time around!<br />
Many thanks to the E MED faculty for the<br />
material they contributed to this report and<br />
to the departmental office staff (especially<br />
Nancy Newkumet) for the many many hours<br />
they spent helping get this together and<br />
keeping the staff doctors organized.<br />
We hope you enjoy these pages and we<br />
vow to bring you more in the future!<br />
Keep in touch.<br />
