Aspirin, cardiovascular events, and major bleeding in older adults: extended follow-up of the ASPREE trial: @ESC_Journals
🥸Aspirin for primary prevention for older pts = MACE!

Vasopressors and #inotropes are frequently used in #IntensiveCare units. With a special focus on recent studies, this article summarises the key messages in the management of patients requiring inotropes and #vasopressors.

🚨Bookmark this🌟SPECTACULAR🌟illustrative review of HIT!
@CukerMD & @jori_may created a fantastic visual guide outlining the diagnosis & management.
It is clear & concise & perfect for sharing! #AnticoagStewardship #TwitteRx @AnticoagForum

1/3 Most of our time in the Harefield ICU is spent finding the optimum balance in our patients’ blood pressure and flow to facilitate perfusion and improve organ function. We manipulate physiology mainly through use of fluids, inotropes, vasopressors, or MCS. – at Hounslow, London

Today we honor Cleveland Clinic heart surgeon René Favaloro on what would have been his 100th birthday.
Dr. Favaloro introduced coronary artery bypass surgery into clinical practice.
It's a procedure that has saved countless lives since.

#0/7 Thanks @purviparwani for robust discussion on diastology which means "Dilation".
I was asked to present my approach to Diastolic Function assessment at @ase360 " Just Relax: Diastolic Dysfunction" session. Let me share again and explain the 7 points that I emphasized.
Stuck in echo lab today but loving Dr. @JaeKOh2 talk on diastology! Thank you @ASE360 for live stream!
1. E prime is the most important parameter
2. Systolic dysfunction doesn’t always mean diastolic dysfunction
2. Not all the diastolic parameters are required
3. Variability in interpretation by age
4. Don’t look at the clinical history or 2D echo features

remember: PaCO2 > etCO2
targeting etCO2 30-35 will generally put the paCO2 into the 35-50 range (safe)
so, the safety of hypercapnia supports the safety of etCO2 monitoring
don't phlebotomize patients to fine-tune something that doesn't matter (2/2)

#TAMEtrial just published!
🩸 Does mild hypercapnia (50-55 mmHg) vs normocapnia (35-45 mmHg) improve outcomes in OHCAs admitted to the ICU?
🧠 Good neuro outcome at 6 mo:
43.5% (hypercapnia) vs 44.6% (normocapnia)

Narrative review on fluids in sepsis
From resuscitation to evacuation
From EGDT to #CLOVERStrial
From fluid responsiveness to fluid intolerance
All the essence is compacted in this paper!
Fluid therapy in sepsis is really interesting😊

Replying to @CritCareReviews
slow correction of hypernatremia in older adults is not evidence-based. the authors discuss this in the text of the article, but unfortunately not in their algorithm. for patients >>40 years old, target 6-11/day is too conservative IMHO.

everyone with acute, severe hypoxemia & bilateral lung infiltrates now has ARDS 🙄
we’re converting a trashcan diagnosis into a gigantic dumpster bin.
studies on this increasingly heterogenious group of patients will struggle to find any useful therapies. – at Burlington, VT
New ARDS definition🫁
What's new👇
1⃣HFNO ≥30 L/m
2⃣SpO2/FiO2 ≤315 & SpO2 ≤97
3⃣Ultrasound diagnosis of bilateral opacities
4⃣Consideration for resource-limited settings
But it's hard to know the consensus process from one-page abstract🤔

This, in my opinion, is still one of THE most important concepts to understand. It can make a world of difference.
