Bedside teaching can be intimidating for teachers too! That's why our 10 Minute Moments (10MM) include faculty development info as well as learner assessment against a rubric. 9 x 10MM downloads are available, from heart murmur to jaundice.

Thanks to Stephen Russell #rcpebedside for highlighting!

Great example of this clinical sign from @nejm.org
The abdominojugular reflux test was performed by applying firm, sustained pressure to the center of the abdomen. A sustained increase in jugular venous pressure (JVP) of more than 3 cm of water for more than 10 seconds indicates a positive test. Full case details: nej.md/4752OVV
