Diuresis and fluid status comes up on almost every single ICU patient (especially in a cardiac ICU🫀) It’s very important to understand how each diuretic works, how they can be combined to augment urine output & their limitations Check out my starter guide for diuresis in the ICU #MedSky #Nephsky

Infographic reviewing main diuretic options in the ICU as well as a proposed algorithm for a diuretic challenge

I remember as an intern getting calls in the night to give unfamiliar patients intravenous hydralazine for their asymptomatic elevated blood pressure. Decades later, I'd have thought we know this is harmful and nonsensical, but apparently not entirely. #medsky jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...

Intubating patients with elevated ICP can be very tricky. Your goal: protect cerebral perfusion & avoid big swings in blood pressure Check out my infographic summarizing some pearls to performing a “neuro protective” intubation🧠 🔗 www.emdocs.net/visual-wedne...

One of my favorite reviews to share with learners Cardiogenic shock can be difficult to diagnose, specially if patient has normal-ish vitals 🫀Know the stages cardiogenic shock with the corresponding physical exam and lab findings 🔗 www.jacc.org/doi/10.1016/...

One of my favorite review articles on management of cardiogenic shock published in JACC in 2020. They go over diagnosis, early management and advanced hemodynamic monitoring. I especially like the table summarizing different MCS options. 🔗 www.jacc.org/doi/abs/10.1...

My first post will be to repost this tip by @mkittlesonmd.bsky.social Finding myself frequently on both sides in the ED & ICU, it’s infinitely better for everyone involved to be pleasant and helpful during a consult. If someone is calling for help, don’t be unpleasant, angry or condescending.
