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
Ultrasound JVP to Estimate CVP, IV Metoprolol vs Diltiazem for Atrial Fibrillation with RVR, Ischemic Stroke and Bleeding Risk with Apixaban vs Rivaroxaban, Reducing Sleep Interruptions in Hospital, Outpatient Remdesivir, Molnupiravir for COVID-19
It's our last episode in 2021! This episode we have Dr. Libo Wang and Dr. Jon Harrison on to talk about their new paper in the Annals of Internal Medicine about ultrasound JVP for estimating CVP, validated with right heart catheterization. We also ask them their thoughts on a new meta-analysis looking at metoprolol vs diltiazem for atrial fibrillation with RVR.
We also look at a new large retrospective study of apixaban vs rivaroxaban for stroke prevention, a study looking at reducing sleep interruptions in the hospital, and two new outpatient therapies for COVID-19 infection.
Happy New Year!
