我的最後一個實習在Swedish Covenant Hospital的outpatient ortho，總共要實習13週。
這邊的工作環境算還不錯，空間夠大，器材夠多，每45分鐘看一個病人，跟台灣比起來算輕鬆多了。

Diabetic Patient
A lot of patients in outpatient neuro are diabetic. It's not surprising because a lot of them are here because of stroke. And most common causes of stroke are all the cardiac risk factors such as hypertension, obesity, sedentary lifestyle, etc.
So what I want to say... to myself, is that watch your patients' response to exercise very carefully.

Clinical Rotation III
很快倒數第二個實習已經過了兩週，也漸漸開始適應Cleveland的生活。
這一站的實習在outpatient neuro，老實說neuro的臨床並不是我很有興趣的，但不可否認，PT對這類病人真的非常之重要。

實習Day 2
Patient 1 Vestibular
Today was a short day. My CI let me treat two of her patients. One was a 87 year old lay who complained of spinning. The diagnosis is still unclear. Hallpike dix test was positive for both R and L, but there was no nystagmus seen on either side, which may be due to Meclizine she is taking. Patient reported that spinning was more severe with L Hallpike, so we decided to treat her L side first.
