A new chronic traumatic encephalopathy study won’t change football overnight, writes @PaulSaxMD in a new NEJM Voices blog post, but it may inform the conversation parents have about whether their kids should play it.

Despite the small size of this randomized trial, immediate use of injectable CAB and RPV was more effective than oral ART in PWH who have adherence-related viremia. @CIDJournal Link in first reply https://t.co/d6Sw0aTmqy 3.6K views · 26 likes · 10 reposts · 4 replies Open on X →

@PaulSaxMD Perhaps the strangest part is not that “viral endocarditis” appears first, but that acute, subacute, chronic, and unspecified all map to B33.21. The system demands a distinction it does not retain. Is there a better example of false precision in medicine? 204 views · 5 likes · 0 reposts · 0 replies Open on X →

@PaulSaxMD Whatever the reason for the changes in icd 10 needing so many details , it’s not working. Especially because epic won’t even let you review your note when it prompts you for things like left/right and all the other details, I hope people know that stuff is all wrong 1.1K views · 2 likes · 0 reposts · 2 replies Open on X →

@PaulSaxMD I hate it when the patient has viral endocarditis. The crp doesn't go down no matter how much pip tazo I give. 2.1K views · 48 likes · 0 reposts · 2 replies Open on X →

When you enter "endocarditis" in our epic system, these are the *first* default diagnoses that pop up since "endocarditis" alone isn't sufficiently specific for billing. Who designed this system, and what did they thing "viral endocarditis" was when they listed it first? https:// 34.4K views · 94 likes · 1 reposts · 12 replies Open on X →
