Great read from one of my mentors at Fogarty International Center! If you were thinking about a career in global health, here's that push to go for it

Antibiotics versus source control

ICU scenarios (and pet peeves):

- Hey doc, this patient with ileus in bed 6 has a blood pressure of 186/68. What do you want me to give?
- Any worrisome symptoms with this BP?
- No, I am just worried she will stroke out
- Don't give anything
- No hydralazine then?
- No, please

Mass DPH just released the #DoxyPEP clinical advisory - big things are happening!

Had a fabulous time representing the GLOWHER Collective at the 75th Annual SOPHE conference and presenting our work on defining youth empowerment in Madagascar using arts-based research methods!

Also thrilled to be selected as a 2024 21st Century Student Scholar.

@davecoolatta @RoshReview We love to see it

[Josh Grubbs @jcgrubbs]

#DoxyPEP is an underutilized and evidence-based strategy more of our patients can benefit from! I’m excited to have recently started appropriate patients on it in clinic and hope to see more of it as practice evolves

[Josh Grubbs @jcgrubbs]

By definition these patients will often overlap with indications for #PrEP so make sure to offer as appropriate or refer to ID

[Josh Grubbs @jcgrubbs]

And of course refer to ID clinic for patients best served with close ID follow-up!

Calling all eptifibatide aficionados out there

[Rohan Ganti, MD MPH @RohangantiMD]

On cardiology rotation right now managing a patient post STEMI, and there are a lot of questions re what anti platelet agents to use after stent placement in the acute phase, any good review articles out there for this? @SVRaoMD @leivaorly @JasonKatzMD #cardstwitter

Huge shout out to our all star residents for being phenomenal doctors and colleagues 🥇🏆🎊✨🎉 #ThankAResidentDay @AyeletDaniels @laura_burns20 @ZaraLatif5 @tony_breu @mvronan @rbganatra

[Josh Grubbs @jcgrubbs]

I can think of so many patients I’ve had who would benefit from a therapy like this - subcutaneous and administered every three weeks, unlike some of the options requiring an infusion pump 24/7

Exciting news in pulmonary hypertension treatment options! https://t.co/h05poeBStA

Here’s a situation many of us have seen in the ICU or ED: “It looked like there was ST elevation on the monitor but when I took a 12 lead it was gone?!”

A STEMI went MIA? Here’s a #tweetorial all about why ST segments look different on monitors.

ICU Facts:

I am neither a nephrologist not a hepatologist but I don't think I am too far from truth if I say that hepatorenal syndrome (HRS) is one of the most misused & misunderstood diagnoses in the ICU

Grateful for @ZhangerzbyAsh taking on this @UVASurgery project examining factors associated with colovesical fistula surgical intervention failure. Catch her presentation @AcademicSurgery 2024!
