I love these two slides on the evidence for combination therapy in persistent MRSA and MSSA bacteremia. References in footer of each slide. #IDWeek2024

ICU Physiology (and Mechanical Ventilation) Secrets: Reminder: The lowest pulmonary vascular resistance occurs when the patient is breathing close to functional residual capacity (FRC) Diagram from: derangedphysiology.com/main/cicm-prim…
Noninvasive ventilation (NIV) has been standard of care treatment for acute exacerbation of COPD (AECOPD) for > 30 years. In this article, the authors describe an evidence-based algorithm of the initiation, titration, monitoring, and weaning of NIV in AECOPD
ELAN trial post-hoc analysis: Early DOAC treatment after ischemic strokes was not associated with a higher rate of adverse events, especially sICH, regardless of infarct size group. Persons with major stroke seem to benefit most (OR 0.52 (0.21 to 1.18)). ja.ma/3wHuMr2

🚨Mechanisms of hypoxemia in #COPD patients w severe #PulmonaryHypertension is finally out! A long, long work but worth the effort 😅 We wondered: why is it that COPD patients with severe PH often have less airflow obstruction and yet more hypoxemia? 🌐bit.ly/3Wnzpik
Guidelines are unanimous; For look risk procedures like paracentesis we need not check INR and should not give FFP Liver, gastroenterology, hematology, and interventional radiology societies agree So why the variation in managing “the cirrhotic coagulopathy”? 🧵

The RVOT or PA Doppler has a lot of underutilized potential for hemodynamic monitoring of the RV #ThePeoplesVentricle 🧵On the physiology of the RVOT/PA Doppler. Simplified understandings. Corrections are welcome!😃 #FOAMcc #EchoFirst #Cardiotwitter #FOAMed #Medtwitter #POCUS
Congestive nephropathy has been documented more than 100 years ago but still patients with with AKI reflexively receive intravenous fluids 🤔 #POCUS
INPATIENT WORKUP OF STROKE To many, stroke admissions are not very exciting: it’s formulaic with the same tests ordered every time. But if you understand the reason behind the tests, it becomes much more interesting! Let’s explore together. #neurology #meded #stroke #FOAMed
1/🧵 Hypovolemia➡️hyperdynamic LV. Maybe not! Take home: Hypovolemia➡️reduced LV function; Hyperdynamic LV is mainly due to low afterload, not hypovolemia. #POCUS #EchoFirst #FOAMed #FOAMcc #POCUS
ET tube confirmation by POCUS: - Bullet sign: reverberation artifact in trachea, single air-mucosal interface = tracheal intubation - Double tract sign: two air mucosal interfaces with posterior shadowing = esophageal intubation

Excellent paper 👇regarding the role of lung US in acute and chronic heart failure. I have a minor comment, so please keep reading!
Each year, Acute Decompensated Heart Failure (ADHF) leads to over 1,000,000 hospitalizations in the U.S. Here's my approach to admitting a patient with ADHF, along with some key clinical pearls. IM Interns - bookmark this! #MedEd #MedTwitter #tipsfornewdocs 1/20
