@MaxJordan_N Kcl crystals exist as a salt substitute (brand name NoSalt) that isn’t that bad actually! Haven’t tried the KCl we give to patients for repletion though.

@BethGay45 My #1 reaction to ED is unfailingly “thank goodness there are people who choose this as a career” - it is so amazingly challenging, and so necessary. We need to protect and take care of our EM colleagues- they are a precious resource

[Jennie Simon Hanberg, MD @Jen_LS_Hanberg]

@MaxJordan_N Not sure what the experience is like at BWH, but at least over here, “email is a second medical record”. It’s common to send emails to outpt providers of hospitalized pts. I found it strange, but not sure if there’s a better way. I don’t know why we don’t use inbasket this way.

@DrCindyCooper Catatonia! (waxy flexibility, responsive to benzod)

[Jennie Simon Hanberg, MD @Jen_LS_Hanberg]

@DrCindyCooper This is a tough one. Rectal prolapse? intussusception?

[Jennie Simon Hanberg, MD @Jen_LS_Hanberg]

@DrCindyCooper @dra_levin B12 deficiency associated with nitrous oxide intoxication? I think we had a res report about this last year!

[Jennie Simon Hanberg, MD @Jen_LS_Hanberg]

@MaxJordan_N @RedCross At MGH at least there is a hospital run donor center that (1) takes appointments (2) always runs on time and (3) gives a $5 coffee central gift card!

@MaxJordan_N @YaleIMed Doing residency at a transplant center having done IM *not* on klatskin, early in intern year I frequently found myself asking why everybody seemed to have cirrhosis.

[Jennie Simon Hanberg, MD @Jen_LS_Hanberg]

@MaxJordan_N I don’t envy the folks who have this as a job

[Jennie Simon Hanberg, MD @Jen_LS_Hanberg]

@MaxJordan_N “Severe protein-calorie malnutrition”
and, “but is the heart failure acute or chronic or acute on chronic”

[Jennie Simon Hanberg, MD @Jen_LS_Hanberg]

@joshuaafein @AaronGoodman33 I had a similar metoprolol - bradycardia a while back

[Jennie Simon Hanberg, MD @Jen_LS_Hanberg]

@ChristleNwora It’s so hard to pay full attention and learn the same way on zoom lectures. (Tangentially, I often feel v privileged that throughout this whole year I still got to come to work in person and see my colleagues, while so many of my friends had to work isolated in home offices 🥺)

[Jennie Simon Hanberg, MD @Jen_LS_Hanberg]

@MaxJordan_N The last time I do a 28 (or a 14+ hour night for that matter…) it will be too soon. It really does wear on a person every time. I’m sorry, Jordan. The only consolation I have is it can be temporary… depending on career choice 😬

[Jennie Simon Hanberg, MD @Jen_LS_Hanberg]

@kidney_boy So is CIN real or not?! I feel like clinically we constantly debate getting necessary scans due to renal function but I’ve heard passionate arguments both ways…
