With HTN, sometimes I feel like we keep getting tech that no one asked for...cuffless devices...renal denervation...where are more chlorthalidone-based combo pills!?! Or BP cuffs for wide/conical arms? How about exam rooms/work flow that work for BP measurement! #Livinginthepast

Excited to share the results from Aim 1 of my Thrasher grant studying cefepime in children receiving CKRT: Our simulations suggest that extended (4h) or continuous infusions of cefepime may be beneficial for achieving 100% T>MIC, particularly with a high CKRT prescription or

Not sure why this isnt getting more traction- cancelling all income driven repayment plans could have a massive impact on pediatric healthcare providers. Are non-IDR payment plans compatible with pediatric salaries? ASPN Advocacy insidehighered.com/news/governmen….
