#MHM20 Pearl: Consider using the PEN-FAST Clinical Decision Rule to evaluate for risk of true penicillin allergy. If score <3, then high negative predictive value and LOW-RISK of true PCN allergy

A pearl from today’s Northwestern Medicine #SchwartzRounds: Reframe the concept of a “difficult patient” to a patient who is dealing with trauma. How might that change your perspective or how you approach a challenging encounter?

I remember when I graduated residency that being a hospitalist was considered “less prestigious” than going into fellowship. Glad I didn’t listen. Esp proud of my community hospitalist colleagues that are running the #COVID19 front line across the country, including my husband.

Well said. Still have a long way to go, and the only way through is supporting each other!

Some staggering stats from Dr. Teresa Zembower Northwestern ID & Antimicrobial Stewardship at NU Internal Medicine Grand Rounds. *️⃣ 15.7% positivity rate *️⃣ 79% increase in non-ICU pts in Chicago hospitals *️⃣ 62% increase in ICU pts *️⃣ 114% increase in ventilator use #MedTwitter Please #WearAMask #StayHome

🦃 Teaching service Thanksgiving edition: took a moment to reflect on what we are grateful for this year as a team. Beyond thankful for NU Internal Medicine resident, med students, NM Hospital Medicine colleagues, and outpouring of support from other faculty, family, and friends 💜.

And now for a Thanksgiving haiku you didn't know you needed! 🦃 A different feast Covid still reigns as beast Still thankful at least Thankful for all my #medtwitter friends Melissa Bregger, MD, FACP Gopi Astik Maria Theodorou, MD, FACP aditipuri Tim Riddell Nita Kulkarni and so many more!

The first COVID-19 vaccines have arrived in Chicago.

This is amazing news!!

We don’t know what we don’t track. While some vaccines cannot be used due to damage, heartbreaking to hear of the waste. Here’s to hoping the methods and reporting improve!
