All right, welcome. This is episode 633 of the Divine Intervention Podcasts. In today's podcast,

we're going to be addressing a rapid review for the US Emily Step 2CK slash step three exams.

And this is going to be series 132. A lot of actually pretty high-yield things I'm going to be discussing

today, biosostatistics,

just a few ideas I've kind of had in my head. So I kind of figured today will be a good day to

hit those, right? So what if they give you a question about a patient? They tell you that this

patient works as an air traffic controller. And then you're told that the patient, you know, the patient's an air traffic controller. And then you're told that the patient, you know, the patient's an air traffic controller,

and then you're told that the patient at his place of work, because of excessive noise exposure,

he's enrolled in a hearing conservation program that involves annual audiometry.

And then they ask you, these actions taken by the patient's employer most likely

represents which of the following levels of prevention. I'd really hope you're picking the answer

that says secondary prevention. I'd really hope you're picking the answer that says what? Secondary

prevention. The USMAL is they love to do stuff like this, right? And this is something that

basically falls under the purview of social sciences and ethics, right? There's a reason why that material, you know, together with biostatistics, it ends up being about 15% of the exams, right? So if you're interested in that material, I do have a class coming up this week. Actually, on Wednesday, I have a social sciences and ethics class taking place on Wednesday, you know, QIO,

those things, we cover that in that class, a five-hour class, cover like almost like 300 scenarios.

And then on Tuesday, which is basically tomorrow, I have a four-hour biostatistics class.

The class I have today, this evening, is the test taking strategies class.

But let's continue with that, right?

So basically, like, this person is in a career, is in a job where they have excessive exposure to noise, right? When you have a lot of exposure to noise, that can cause hearing loss, right? That can typically cause a sensory neurohearing loss. Let me ask you this. Will this sensory neurohearing loss in this patient be unilateral or bilateral if they were to have it? It's going to be bilateral, right? It's going to be bilateral. That's pretty high yield to know for your

exams, right? That's pretty high yield to know for your exams, right? So if the person is in a hearing

conservation program and we're trying to screen them for hearing loss, that screening is going to be

secondary prevention, right? Remember, secondary prevention is when you screen to catch disease early,
