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
Anticoagulation in AF with Cirrhosis, Trends in Anticoagulation for Acute PE, Beta Blockers for Acute MI with Normal EF, Finerenone for HFpEF, Continuous vs Intermittent Infusion for Antibiotics, Cefepime vs Piperacillin-Tazobactam for Sepsis
It's been a long time, but we are back!
Apologies on the audio quality from Dr. Jenkins. Apparently he was recording from inside a cardboard box.
Today we talk about important, practice changing studies in internal medicine from the last several months. What's the best anticoagulant in patients with cirrhosis and atrial fibrillation? Why do doctors use so much unfractionated heparin for acute PE? Should we still be using beta blockers in patients with acute MI? Does finerenone improve outcomes in HFpEF? Is continuous infusion of antibiotics better than intermittent? And will the cefepime vs piperacillin-tazobactam battle ever end?
