"We...need to be cognizant of these discrepancies and the biases that exist in our medical technology." Drs. @ScottKetchamMD & Sarah Adie (@UMichPharmacy) to @CBSDetroit on racially biased pulse oximeter readings affecting Black patients with heart failure:https://t.co/istbq9yQX9

[U-M Health Frankel CVC @umichCVC]

New @umichmedicine research finds that racially biased pulse oximeter readings may further limit opportunities for Black patients with heart failure — who are already less likely to get treatment — to receive therapies such as heart pumps and transplants: https://t.co/Fqst7tiWQL

⬆️rates of delirium in pts with #MCS associated with ⛔ clinical outcomes like ICU LOS & d/c to rehab rather than home. How can we prevent delirium & its consequences in pts with temporary MCS? #CICU #CHEST #ACCCriticalCare #CriticalCareCardiology https://t.co/F2oqUsafeA

Important work done by Nandiwada et al. that highlights the importance of CICU providers/teams having a strong working knowledge of the management of IMV for an increasingly complex population @ElliottMillerMD @HalliePrescott https://t.co/ChC8W7rAcN

See the original study examining causes of death in patients with respiratory failure here, in @Crit_Care

[Scott Ketcham @ScottKetchamMD]

How does cause of death differ between #COVID19 and pre-COVID respiratory failure? What does end of life care look like in #COVID19? Find out in new @AnnalsATS study from @umichmedicine! @HalliePrescott @msjoding @ShreddedMoney @UMIntMed @UM_IntMedCMRs

[Scott Ketcham @ScottKetchamMD]

More than half of patients admitted with COVID-19 died without friends or family present. This likely reflects the changes in visitation policies during the pandemic, as shown by @tsvalley and colleagues in @ATSBlueEditor

#WhyUMichIM - because these humans make a virtual holiday zoom party more fun than you can imagine.

But mostly because Santa Claus is our program director 🎄❄️ 🎅🏽@UM_IntMedCMRs
