  • Fantastic podcast

    Podcast does a great job of providing high-yield , insightful clinical pearls. The information really helps me consolidate information I’ve learned elsewhere, and introduces to me to information I otherwise would not have learned at all. I greatly appreciate the respected expert opinions this show incorporates.

  • Skip the jokes

    Good content, but no one is here for jokes, puns, attention-drawing references, self-satisfied quips etc. Your team's bright with useful info and organization; don't feel pressured to entertain us. Docs almost never do that well.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

#207 Is There a Doctor on Board? In-Flight Emergencies
Q: Is there a doctor on board?
The guest explains that there was at least one doctor on the flight, and additional medical help was sought from another doctor on board; ground support and the airline's medical kit were used to coordinate care.
#204 Diabetic Foot Infections & Osteomyelitis: 5 Pearls Segment
Q: When should antibiotics be held to obtain cultures, and when must we start treatment immediately?
If the patient is unstable or septic, start antibiotics immediately. If stable and cultures are likely to meaningfully guide management, there may be a window to hold antibiotics briefly to obtain cultures before starting targeted therapy.
#200: Insulin and QWINT-1 Trial in T2DM: Beyond Journal Club Segment with NEJM Group
Q: What are the guidelines for when we should reach for insulin for a patient with type 2 diabetes?
Insulin should be considered if a patient has symptoms of hyperglycemia or if their hemoglobin A1c is very high, typically above 10.
#182 Pleural Effusions: 5 Pearls Segment
Q: When should we think about thoracentesis?
Generally, we should consider thoracentesis for unilateral pleural effusions or bilateral effusions that are not improving with treatment.
#170 ILD and High-Risk Medication Prescribing: Gray Matters Segment
Q: So, Allie, after all these conversations, how are you feeling about this case now?
I do feel a lot better because I recognize that I really did do everything I could for her, and it's helpful framing, thinking in terms of Maslow's hierarchy of needs.
