  • Helped me pass the boards!

    Dr. Fitzgerald is amazing in how she breaks down information in digestible pieces. She explains the rationales and has a gift for explaining things that make them easy to understand. Thank you so much for this podcast! I have recommended it to many others NP students and new to practice NPs.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

75-Year-Old Woman With CKD and UTI
Q: Which antibiotic is most appropriate for this patient with CKD and suspected cystitis?
Nitrofurantoin is preferred due to low resistance rates and safe renal profile at the patient's GFR, despite CKD, provided renal function is adequate; trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole is less favored due to hyperkalemia risk with CKD and ACE inhibitors/ARB, ciprofloxacin is discouraged in uncomplicated cases due to resistance and adverse effects, amoxicillin lacks efficacy against common uropathogens.
Skin Lesions in a Four-Day-Old Infant
Q: What is the most likely diagnosis given the neonate's presentation?
Erythema Toxicum Neonatorum, a benign condition that presents with scattered erythematous macules and papules with occasional pinpoint pustules and typically resolves with observation.
Developmental Red Flags in a 6-Month Old
Q: Which of the following would not be a red flag requiring further evaluation?
The statement that a six-month-old should roll in either direction is a red flag if absent; B and D discuss typical milestones with some variability, but A (inability to roll in either direction) is the flag that would prompt concern and referral.
HTN Interventions
Q: Which of the following is the next best step in the patient's care?
Restart prior blood pressure medicines with follow-up within the next month.
Asymptomatic Bacteriuria
Q: Which of the following two patients with ABS should receive antimicrobial therapy?
The 30-year-old pregnant woman and the 72-year-old man scheduled for TURP next week should receive antimicrobial therapy, while the elderly long-term care resident with dementia and the man with a catheter and no symptoms should not.
