Abstract
Introduction: From the first year of training as a doctor, we are taught the importance of specializing. I was no exception, and from a very early age I dreamed of becoming a specialist in critical care medicine, known as intensive care. In Mexico, to achieve this, you must go through a core specialty such as internal medicine, anesthesiology, emergency medicine or general surgery, depending on the location. To do so, you must take a knowledge exam called ENARM. After evaluating the pros and cons of each specialty, I decided on emergency medicine, since there I would have the opportunity to learn a little bit of everything about patients.
Resumen
Introducción: Desde el primer año de la formación como médico, se nos inculca la importancia de especializarnos. Yo no fui la excepción, y desde muy temprano soñaba con convertirme en especialista en medicina del enfermo en estado crítico, conocida como terapia intensiva. En México, para lograrlo, se debe pasar a través de una especialidad troncal como medicina interna, anestesiología, medicina de urgencias o cirugía general, dependiendo del lugar. Para ello, debemos realizar un examen de conocimientos llamado ENARM. Después de evaluar los pros y contras de cada especialidad, me decidí por medicina de urgencias, ya que allí tendría la oportunidad de aprender un poco de todo sobre los pacientes.
