How many people know about the origin of the first ambulance crew in the country?
The Black crew in Pittsburgh persevered through tons of racism and changed prehospital care forever.

@ailley_ Best snow day ever!

I haven't felt this tired after work in a while. To say the ED has been busy lately would be an understatement. Be kind to your pharmacist lol

Thanks to Dr. Doug Nulph for his discussion about SVT and adenosine dosing. Pts who had successful conversion with 6 mg were significantly lower in weight compared to who failed conversion. Should we be starting with 12 mg in our larger patients? Considering alternative agents?

@EMPoisonPharmD teaches us about using shock index to mitigate hypotension and cardiac arrest post-intubation

🔑 takeaway: SI >= 0.8 predictive of post-intubation hypotension @ASHP_EMPharm

@HennepinRx will be at the mid year showcase as well as PPS, but we’ll also be holding another virtual open house after midyear for those who aren’t attending!

Thanks to Dr. Franco for presenting about this study about phenobarbital dosing in benzo-resistant severe alcohol withdrawal syndrome.

[Critical Care Pharmacists @CCPharmacists]

"In comparison w/ trough-based vancomycin dosing, our results suggest that use of AUC-based #vancomycin dosing in combination with piperacillin-tazobactam, meropenem, or cefepime may result in a lower overall incidence of AKI."

@pharmacypearls_ There’s some evidence that Succ can be stored at room temperature for a few months, ~ 4-8months. Stating 6 months might be a safe bet

Very useful for crash cart & REA bay

Friendly reminder: do NOT give steroids to #COVID+ patients on room air…please!

Crothers et al found 76% increased risk for 90-day mortality for patients on room air that got dex.

That’s bonkers. Why would you ever risk that?!
