Signout is hospital slang for the transfer of information between patient care teams. It is also the name of this blog, which represents one of the less dysfunctional ways in which Dr. Signout copes with her participation in a U.S. medical residency program.

This blog is all sweetness and light. Just behold this entry from my first month of residency; the last thing it makes me want to do is jump off a bridge.

Voice after voice described the patient's wife as thoroughly brutal in her abuse of the housestaff. But in my newness to the profession, I'd had no idea I was being abused.

I was recently asked by Blog, MD to weigh in on how I'd spend the $456 billion that has so far been spent on the U.S. military effort in Iraq if, by some terrible error, I were made Queen of the World.

It seems almost excessively reasonable to consider familial resources and the self-interest of potentially responsible parties when deciding whether a developmentally disabled person should have contraception. Sure, reproduction is a right, but is it really that inalienable?

YES! Send me a free issue of Seed.
If I like what I see, I'll receive 5 more issues (6 in all) for just $14.95. That's 50% off the cover price! If I'm not completely satisfied, I'll simply write "cancel" on the invoice and owe nothing. The free issue is mine to keep.
