The strangest case of my primary care career began with an electronic patient request.

I get these a lot. 99% are med refills, forms, or questions about symptoms. This was different. My patient felt fine. But, he was worried he’d be sent to jail…

one of the most important things I’ve learned as a working parent is to appreciate the power of the word “and”.

I enjoy my work AND I miss my kids during the day. The initial back to work time is hard AND I will find my groove again. #workingparent

DICTATE-AHF top line results were presented at #ESCCongress2023 KEY MESSAGE: Dapagliflozin is safe to start on the first day of AHF hospitalization to optimize #gdmt Addironally, diuretic benefits have meaningful impact on AHF discharge rates over the study period

Early initiation of the sodium glucose co-transporter 2 ( #SGLT2 ) inhibitor dapagliflozin did not result in a statistically significant improvement in diuretic efficiency relative to structured usual care in hospitalised patients with acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF).

A pragmatic natriuresis guided diuretic approach in patients with acute #heartfailure significantly increases 24-hour natriuresis without impacting all-cause mortality or heart failure rehospitalisation.
