As I finish up residency, a bit of (statistical) reflection. Some time early in intern year I started tracking the number of patients I took care of. The final numbers:
Grady nightfloat admissions: 133
Grady inpatient: 430
Emory patients: 299
VA: didn’t track because CPRS
Question for #livertwitter Are any of you measuring handgrip strength in clinic as part of a malnutrition/sarcopenia/frailty assessment? If so, what device and cutoffs are you using and are you tracking longitudinally?

Congrats to 3rd-year fellow Eric Lorio on his recent publication in JPGN! Read about the risk factors for ERCP in pediatrics, including how complications differ between age groups. An interesting perspective in an emerging field! – at New Orleans, LA
Very excited to share our recently published research on ERCP in pediatrics! This is an emerging practice, and we hope our 17-year experience will provide guidance for endoscopists and families for whom this procedure is offered.

Medicine affectation outbreak alert. Among local medical professionals there has been a significant uptick in the use of the single word “correct” to signify agreement. More data needed to determine if this is a localized outbreak or more widespread.

Take your time.
Rule out infection.
Sit down and hammer out a plan for the AUD.
Feed the patient.
