Today we are doing double duty: podcasting and parenting. Fortunately our babies were well-behaved. We talk about three trials for semaglutide and weight loss and a new 4 level pre-test probability rule for diagnosing PE. We also talk about a retrospective study of cefazolin vs nafcillin for epidural abscess, a ferritin/procalcitonin ratio for differentiating bacterial from COVID pneumonia, and a new randomized controlled trial of intermediate thromboprophylaxis for ICU patients with COVID19.
