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 />
