Monday night shift with teaching resident Youssef Annous #foamed #WhiteBoardTeaching ⁦UMEM Residency⁩

Regarding PPIs, I will leave that to Dr. Annous to address. Regarding the myth of Trendelenburg, see 2004 article by Johnson, et al. "Myth: The Trendelenburg position improves circulation in cases of shock" in Canadian J of Emerg Med

Amal Mattu Love to hear from Dr. Annous on the subject. Might he reference this Cochrane Review? PMID: 34995368. “we found moderate‐certainty evidence that pre‐endoscopic PPI treatment probably caused a moderate reduction in the need for endoscopic haemostatic treatment at index endoscopy”
