A beautiful example of a trial designed and conducted to ensure a drug was able to clear the lowest possible bar to deliver the press releases its manufacturer required.

Timely antibiotics and source control are important – but dramatically less critically important unless critically unwell.

Observational studies finding associations with time-to-antibiotics and mortality are frequently systematically biased:

You are in a busy community ED, getting your 🍑 kicked trying to drink from a firehose. You have a patient in septic shock. In addition to fluids, you are giving peripheral vasopressors.

Do you *actually* need to start an arterial line, or can you get by with cuff measurements?

A prospective observational study published last week of 1852 critically ill adults says yes. There was a mean difference of 6mmHg between the cuff estimated MAP and the A-line. Things that threw off the measurements:
-Very low MAPs
-Higher BMI
-Advanced age

BREAKING: GUILTY is the verdict for Robert Solis- the coward who shot & killed my friend,but more importantly a beloved member of our community- Deputy Sandeep Dhaliwal. Below is a pic of my post 3 yrs ago when he was killed on duty. Today I hope his family finds some peace.❤️🕊

Take note: pub'd online Oct 11 2022, ACC now is formally endorsing deWinter T waves, as well as modified Sgarbossa criteria for LBBB + pacemakers as "STEMI equivalents" and need for immediate angiography. At last! #foamed https://t.co/bJ1WcwIPoH

I am an emergency physician at Parkland Hospital, the busiest emergency department in the country. I have had ZERO physical assaults by patients on any ED healthcare workers in SEVEN YEARS while I was working. It CAN be done and is NOT part of the job. https://t.co/9eVTHj6NnF
