#MedTwitter #MedEd #FOAMed
2/12 Let's start with anemia. It is ideal if you report the baseline Hgb and an interpretation of the MCV. #HemeTwitter
3/12 For VTEs, it is helpful to tell the listener/reader if you think it is provoked vs. unprovoked. A hypercoagulable work-up should not be sent routinely.
4/12 Next is heart failure. Reporting the medications with mortality benefit (for HFrEF) can be valuable in identifying if another medication needs to be started.
#CardioTwitter, thoughts on best practices?
5/12 The anatomy of lesions in CAD, which arteries have been stented, and anti-platelet agents can be helpful.
6/12 Next we have A-fib/flutter - the main highlights are anti-coagulation and rate/rhythm control
7/12 Next is sepsis! Here are some helpful qualifiers to stay organized (along with definitions of severe sepsis and septic shock)
8/12 There is a nice list of things to review in patients with cirrhosis #GITwitter #LiverTwitter
9/12 Next up is diabetes #EndoTwitter
10/12 It is helpful to delineate pathologic from non-pathologic fractures as this helps delineate treatment options #OrthoTwitter
11/12 COPD is up next! Remember that the goal O2 sat in patients with COPD is 88-92% to prevent uncoupling of compensatory hypoxic vasoconstriction #PulmTwitter
12/12 Here is a compilation of all of them.
