Background: The overall mortality and case-fatality rate for pulmonary embolism (PE) are decreasing. Yet reporting is increasing, suggesting we are overdiagnosing PE. Furthermore, management with anticoagulation is not entirely benign and places a potential risk of bleeding upon the patient. However, when the threat of disease outweighs the risk from any possible complication, the decision to anticoagulate is easy to conclude.

Take Home Points SVT >5cm or <3 cm from the SFJ should be treated with anti-coagulation. The rate of concurrent DVT and PE in patients with SVT is 25% and 5%, respectively. REBEL Core Cast 85.0 – Superficial Venous Thrombosis Click here for Direct Download of the Podcast Definition: The presence of a clot in a superficial vein. Epidemiology: Although large prospective trials are lacking, superficial venous thrombosis (SVT) has been reported occur at a rate of 4 in 1000 per year
About 40% of us will be diagnosed with cancer in our lifetime, and patients are getting younger. At the same time, the cost of treatment continues to rise, with employers spending 8.5% more on cancer care for each employee than they did last year. The best thing employers can do for their employees and business tomorrow is to invest in cancer detection and care today.
Background: Epistaxis is a common ailment experienced by millions worldwide. While most of these cases can be managed by patients at home, some will require medical attention. Initial interventions include local pressure, ice, and forward head positioning for persistent bleeds. When simple maneuvers fail, we proceed to topical agents such as lidocaine with epinephrine, oxymetazoline, anterior nasal packing, and electrical or chemical cauterization.
Background Information: Multiple illness severity scores have been developed for use after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) and in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA). Unfortunately, these rely on information that is not immediately available to providers in the early hours following return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC). 1 The Pittsburgh Cardiac Arrest Category (PCAC) Score ( Figure 2) was derived from the Full Outline of UnResponsiveness (FOUR) brainstem and motor sub-scores ( Figure 1 ).
Background: Rob Elementary. Columbine. Sandy Hook. Pulse Night Club. Tops Grocery Store. Irvine Taiwanese Presbyterian Church. Virginia Beach. The Tree of Life Synagogue. Santa Fe High School. The New York City Subway. The Las Vegas Harvest Music Festival. Aurora Movie Theater. The El Paso Walmart. Tulsa. The list goes on. The United States has a unique epidemic: mass shootings.
Background: The use of topical tranexamic acid (TXA) for anterior epistaxis has been studied in many trials with conflicting results. The largest and most methodologically rigorous study to date on the use of topical TXA in epistaxis has been the NoPAC trial ( Link is HERE ), published in 2021. In that trial there was no difference in the need for anterior nasal packing when comparing placebo to topical TXA.
