HyperK, ⬇️BP, renal dysfunction can hamper #GDMT prescribing in #HF. A few back-pocket strategies: -check 💦 status and adjust diuretic first -stagger doses -Monitor Cr ⬆️ <50% and K< 5.5 -Know when to sub ARNI for ACEi, metop XL for carvedilol 👇 sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Horrible nephrotic syndrome, serologies “neg,” renal bx contraindicated (fresh VTE, severe skin breakdown over back). Fat pad bx neg. Had a BKA at OSH 2 years prior. Called outside pathologist who agreed to Congo red stain the specimen. + green birefringence! Badass.

Remove the ability to order CRP for 6 months & measure outcomes. My hypothesis is that they’ll remain unchanged and maybe improved (LOS, cost, blood draw, serial imaging). Has any institution ever done this? Vanderbilt University Medical Center Meharry-Vanderbilt Alliance VUMC Infectious Diseases VUMC Department of Medicine VUMCHospitalMed

The diagnosis of “UTI” is dangerous. Question it and scrutinize it. In this case, the hyper acute onset of AF RVR in the setting of isolated pyuria was in fact NOT a UTI. It was bilateral PE. UTI is a diagnosis of exclusion (and I could say the same for “CAP”).

Inpt admit for “Falls” is not just “PT/OT” eval. Think about issues with: Gait Balance Vestibular system Nerves/muscle Vision/hearing Cognition Meds Environment CV - BP, HR Was it really a “fall” or could it be syncope/transient LOC? Oh, and do a neuro exam!
