Last Week in Medicine
Wouldn't it be nice if someone reviewed all the latest internal medicine literature and distilled it into a brief podcast you could listen to on your way to work? Get updates from the New England Journal of Medicine, JAMA Network, Annals of Internal Medicine, Journal of Hospital Medicine, Journal of General Internal Medicine, Lancet and more.
Last Week in Medicine
Early Vasopressors and Restrictive Fluids in Septic Shock (CLOVERS), Furosemide vs Torsemide in Heart Failure (TRANSFORM-HF), Aspirin vs Enoxaparin after Extremity Fracture (PREVENT CLOT), Haloperidol for ICU Delirium (AID-ICU)
We're back with Season 4! Sorry for the unplanned hiatus.
Today we talk about the CLOVERS trial, which tested the hypothesis that early vasopressors and restrictive fluid would be superior to liberal fluids plus rescue vasopressors. We also looked at the TRANSFORM-HF study, which compared torsemide and furosemide in congestive heart failure, the PREVENT CLOT study, which compared aspirin to enoxaparin for VTE prophylaxis after a traumatic fracture, and the AID-ICU study, which compared haloperidol to placebo in the treatment of ICU delirium.
CLOVERS trial
Torsemide vs Furosemide in CHF
Aspirin vs Enoxaparin for VTE ppx after Fracture
IV Haloperidol in ICU Delirium
We also quickly review some papers we missed in 2022:
Apixaban for VTE in ESRD
Acetazolamide for Congestive Heart Failure
Moderate or Aggressive IV Fluids for Pancreatitis
Perioperative Management of Anticoagulation
CRISTAL study (aspirin vs enoxaparin after TKA/THA)
