I'm doing an IM prelim year, and having quite a hard time trying to do procedures. I'm wondering if other people at IM programs have the same problem. On the medical wards, if a patient needs an LP, paracentesis, thora, etc, everyone gets sent to IR. I always try and stop this from happening and push to do it, but there is never anyone available to supervise the procedure. Nearly all the hospitalists are not certified in these procedures and will not supervise. Any advice on how to get around this.
