It's time to return to blogging. And as I read the Occupational Therapy Examination Review Guide, I'm struck by how much of my learning is not sticking. I first YouTubed "hydrocephalus" because a line drawing is not worth a thousand words, but the video about Kadyn David is.
I wanted to see what a shunt looks like. A malfunctioning shunt causes irritability, nausea, pallor, visual perceptual difficulties, and headaches. A good OT would know this, right? Kadyn also has ASD (atrial septal defect) and VSD (ventricular septal defect). It's so much easier to remember things when those things you have to remember have a face...it also makes it sadder.
