Today, I took a patient outside for the first time in their stay. That is always a massive privilege for me. We talked through some struggles, & they felt relieved. Sometimes, all that's needed is a conversation with the right person. #FreshAirMatters #PatientExperience

Long COVID affects millions, yet many still struggle to get the care they need. Symptoms can be mild to severe and can lead to new or worsening conditions. On Long COVID Awareness Day (March 15), let’s amplify the voices of those living with it and push for more research and

I naturally gravitate towards poetry, so this was one of my 1st medical essays: patient w/ ICU delirium/psychosis. His death spurred greater awareness via his wife and myself in working with WesElyMD @vumcneuro Vanderbilt School of Medicine Neurology Journal CIBS Center neurology.org/doi/10.1212/wn…

Delirium treatment framed honestly: there is a lot to it - we need to confront this. Lazy approach: - treat the first cause that comes to mind - give haloperidol reflexively Good approach: - consider multiple aspects - see attached

For many, #delirium has a long shadow. E.g. cognitive dysfunction may persist long after discharge: 40% have new /worsened cognitive impairment at 3 months 25% show effects at 1 year Many never return to baseline āž”ļø Always consider the need for follow-up.

Persistent #delirium can be defined as delirium lasting 5+ days. It's not uncommon for undiagnosed or mislabeled persistent delirium to lead to inappropriate care home admission - and for the patient to recover weeks later, when it can be too late.

Top photo: nearly dead. Bottom photo: back to life. I’m walking the #Nashville5K with the team from Vanderbilt Health’s #CIBSCenter to raise awareness for ICU survivors like me—and the thousands still recovering. MY WHY: Suffering without meaning nearly broke me. Giving it meaning
