Healthcare involves many difficult unsolved problems.

VC thinks they're smarter than everyone else and they can do more with less.

When they run the ship into the ground, à la red lobster, you discovery they were actually doing less with less.

Dude, this is fantastic. I specifically read this to see -if- you would talk about Brady indications... not only -did- you, but the section is excellent.

Short skytorial about a fresh IBCC chapter covering all things methylxanthine-related (caffeine & theophylline).

This is a niche topic that we don't encounter in everyday practice, but it ties together some loose ends.

(chapter is here: emcrit.org/ibcc/caffeine/) #EMIMCC

The best thing is that you don't need to commit to anything. It's not a marriage. I like open ai. Better native apps for iOS and MacOS. But play with both. The subscriptions are only a month at a time.

Kagi/orion. Never going back. Happy to pay.

If typical sens and spec for CTA is 85% and 96%, respectively

if your pre-test prob if PE is sky high, like 99%

the post-test probabiity of PE with a neg CTA is still 94% (rounded numbers)

I'd say give lytics anyway if you suspect PE, particularly if LE US shows DVT.

Just a thought.

Pls consider this a constructive, academic commnent... i kinda disagree with the conclusion statement of being thankful that you did not adminster lytics.

Using @kagi.com is like using a fork when everyone else insists on chopsticks. Yeah, people are wizards and can do cool stuff, but if you just want to find something and move on, Kagi is way better. And it's only $5 a month, not $10, for a non-pro account.

The future of search isn’t Google — and it’s $10 a month

Paying for a search engine is a lot to ask, but you might not have a better option anymore.

I would definitely contribute to a GoFundMe to have you do a Steve Kornacki map style breakdown of the match by program and individual candidate.

How much cocaine and coffee would you need for this?

I guess I see a lot of effusions. Maybe I should start by asking about the prevalence of pleural effusions in all hospitalized patients.

Someone once said never let the sun set on these things.

I don't know anything about this. Do you think it happens more or less?

I can't help but think this Chipotle burrito is a metaphor for all the good that happens to an industry when VC takes over.

if a v/q scan is the only thing in the way of lytics or aspiration, just do it, and go to lab. :-)
