4 awesome talks + Q&A—all in under an hour! Let’s go! 👉🏽

Dr. Krystal Mills of @MSMEDU taught us about trending ammonia levels in hepatic encephalopathy—don’t do it. Shout out to her coach Dr. @TracyVettese of @EmoryDeptofMed. Read this article if you haven’t! 👉🏽

We learned from @dr_jsharp, Emory IM PGY2, that we need to pump the brakes on reflexive antipyretics in patients with a fever. His coach, Dr. Benjamin Renelus, @MSMEDU faculty supported in style! Want to know more? Read this paper. So good! 👉🏽

Dr. Joi Hester, @MSMEDU PGY2, schooled us on routine thyroid testing in the hospital. Spoiler alert: It’s not necessary. Coached by Dr. Francois Rollin of @EmoryDeptofMed. Another amazing paper to read if you haven’t. 👉🏽

5/
Dr. @nourbeydounn, @EmoryDeptofMed PGY3 unpacked echos in hemodynamically stable patients with PE. Her coach, Dr. Suman Jana of @MSMEDU even chimed in on the Q&A portion with additional teaching points. I’d missed this one in @JHospMedicine—great 8 minute summary! 👉🏽

6/
Our fantastic 4 brought some additional 🔥 during the Q&A portion—which we all recognize is an art! Krystal got the most questions and was a master at navigating Zoom + in person queries! Of course the others crushed their questions, too!

Sooo good! 👉🏽
