Miscellaneous
Today is our season 2 finale, and we have a master class on prosthetic joint infections from Dr. Laura Certain. Is 6 weeks as good as 12 weeks for prevent recurrent infections? How does the surgeon decide what kind of surgery to do? Should we use oral or IV antibiotics? When should you use rifampin?? Dr. Certain answers all these questions and more. We also talk about the new colon cancer screening guidelines from USPSTF, hospital admission for chest pain after ACS ruled out in the ED, whether morning discharges improve patient throughput, and a study looking at personalized steroid dose for COPD exacerbations. We will be back in the fall of 2021!
