How many of you fluid restrict heart failure patients to 1.5L? Me too! But the evidence would suggest this has no benefit on decongestion and just makes patients more thirsty. Thanks @JJCuthbert for linking this pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/2368…

They don’t like it when we say patients are “non-compliant”, but if we don’t do our “learning” modules, the hospitals say we are out of compliance.

Ok who is telling my 95YO newly diagnosed hfref patient to stop eating salt? Just give the man his fried chicken and an extra tab of lasix.

I think I have more success getting patients to get past the pre-contemplative phase of smoking when I break down the financial impact of smoking in front of them. Not sure if that equates to successfully quitting though. $8 x 30 = $240/month = $2.9K/year

Net worth surveys of physicians in their 60s, generally at the end of a 30+ year career, show that one-quarter of them have a net worth of less than $1 Million, and 12% have a net worth of less than $500,000!

Now that my son has entered the toddler age and started listening to music, I’ve decided the best Cocomelon song is “I am the music man”. Fight me over it.

I also looked at the last cardiologists’ note.
Did you really hear that murmur or did you look at cardiology's last progress note?
