About this episode
Lots of cardiology to discuss this week with the Apple Heart and COLCOT studies, both published in the New England Journal of Medicine. We also talk about the 3 Wishes Project, the net clinical benefit of oral anticoagulation with aging over 75, the benefits of non-pharmaceutical treatment of agitation, and getting blood cultures before you give antibiotics.
