NO ASSOCIATION BETWEEN PREPROCEDURAL FASTING AND WITNESSED PULMONARY ASPIRATION
A SYSTEMATIC REVIEW AND META-ANALYSIS

I want to bring to everyone's attention the publication of an article we have been working on for some time.

Ever been annoyed by having cases cancelled because a patient ate recently? I had this happen a couple of years ago. This motivated me to look at the preoperative fasting literature.

I was surprised to learn how little actual evidence there is to support fasting policies.

In our recent publication we point out that 1) aspiration rates are no different now than they were before fasting was imposed before administering anesthesia 2) The studies used in fasting research use surrogate outcomes that have never been shown to be relevant to human aspiration events.

See the article published in Surgery (@SurgJournal) here:

There is a pressing need to rethink preoperative fasting policies. New studies are needed that employ proper endpoints to provide guidance for how long patients really need to fast. My guess is, not very long.

Wait torsemide has less kidney bioavailability than furosemide and the appropriate PO ratio between them is actually 4:1? 🤯

Heart failure pt in ICU is -3.5L after 2d of aggressive diuresis. On day 3, urine output is ⬇️and BUN/Cr is ⬆️

You personally wedge #PAC at bedside and obtain a mean wedge 17 mmHg (a normal mean wedge is 6-10 mmHg). Admission wedge was 24

I shed many tears while typing up these heart-wrenching text messages sent and received by UNC students yesterday. Our campus was on lockdown for more than three hours.

Beyond proud of this cover and the team behind it.

NNT to prevent 1 death from any cause

Aspirin for secondary prevention: 333

Spironolactone for HFrEF: 9

If discharging a CAD patient without aspirin sounds crazy, then what does that say about discharging a HFrEF patient without an MRA?

Consistent data from propensity matched studies. More complications with Impella, no mortality benefit.
See Dhruva et al. JAMA 2020 and Amin et al. Circulation 2020 and Schrage et al. Circulation 2019. We urgently need RCTs! #DanGer #ECLS-SHOCK

VExUS is not a measurement of RAP!! It is a measurement of pressure transmission from RA to peripheral organ veins.

This transmission is a function of RAP yes, but also of venous distensibility!

Correlation of VExUS with RAP is moderate at most 👇 1/2
