@user0ioi @AaronGoodman33 @nihardesai7 @Bloodman Yes! Anemia is a late finding in iron deficiency.

@ParijatSen11 This is why my signature includes VTE ppx, GI ppx, lines, fever plans, diet, and bowel regimen, to name a few things I don’t want to miss.

@ParijatSen11 As a med Peds Hospitalist, I see charting done both ways. I find that my pediatric learners don’t often have as good of a grasp of the problems when systems based charting is used. I was just talking about this with some colleagues.

@Jmarksloan I love how 2+ years outside of residency is considered a red flag and yet institutions continue to train and hire midlevels in these specialties!

@adnandawood @dvassallo Of oral X-rays, a panorex (one X-ray visualizing the entire mouth) exposes to four times the amount of radiation as four separate bitewing X-rays. Four bitewing X-rays exposes to the same amount of radiation as we are exposed to from natural radiation in a day. Negligible risk

@BradSpellberg @sebpoule @TMcCarty2010 @DrToddLee @Josh_S_Davis Wait you mean we shouldn’t be checking urine cultures for test of cure?! 🙄 (sarcasm)

@IdVilchez Also why are we including anaerobic coverage for CAP without post obstructive PNA, abscess or empyema?

[J Dylan Hall, MD @J_Dylan_Hall]

@IdVilchez Are there host factors that make the risk of missing coverage for drug resistant organisms high? I still see a lot of Zosyn for sepsis without acute organ dysfunction for community acquired infections and immediately de-escalate on admission.

@issarantqueen @drkeithsiau @ShiYunZhao Then get a UDS including one testing for carrots. Patients always lie! Lol

1/ #HFpEF treatment algorithm #tweetorial. This is the algorithm I currently use to treat HFpEF based on evidence we have thus far and my anecdotal experience treating patients over the past 16 years in the @NMCardioVasc HFpEF Clinic.

@HarveyGuzman_ There will be other decades to worry about those loans 😂😵‍💫

[J Dylan Hall, MD @J_Dylan_Hall]

@HarveyGuzman_ Make your minimum payment during residency for purposes of counting toward PSLF (if on REPAYE you’ll save some interest) and don’t think about it anymore while you’re a resident. Focus on becoming the kind of physician you want to be…

@willyhfrick @rehbies @LianaMoraitou @IdVilchez @okwalding @ABsteward Does that mean pip/tazo is free? 😂

@gbosslet @IUMedSchool “One medical expert told Fox News Digital in December that the foothold gained by DEI policies in medical schools posed a serious risk to the quality of care patients could receive in the future.”
- Says no actual expert on this subject

[J Dylan Hall, MD @J_Dylan_Hall]

@okwalding Then the corporate medical groups wouldn’t be requiring hospitalists to see unreasonable numbers of patients and could focus more on getting to enjoy the medicine too.

[J Dylan Hall, MD @J_Dylan_Hall]

@okwalding But remember that sometimes a silly consult is from an overworked hospitalist who would like to make it home at a reasonable time. The pay structure needs to change so that many of our cognitive tasks can be reimbursed at higher rates.
