    Episode 115. Impact of EM CPP-driven sepsis antibiotic interventions with Taylor Cason

    This episode of the Pharm So Hard podcast discusses the use of clinical pharmacy practitioners in the emergency room and their impact on sepsis antibiotic interventions author by Aubrie Hammond, Regan Porter, Taylor Cason, et al. The study found that the involvement of EMCPPs significantly improved the selection and timing of antibiotic administration in septic patients. The pharmacist-driven protocol improved the rate of appropriate antibiotic selection from 57% to 86% and reduced the time to administration by 64 minutes. The study also highlighted areas where antibiotic selection could be further improved, such as UTIs and intra-abdominal infections. The role of pharmacists in optimizing treatment time and expanding the pharmacist-driven sepsis management model was also discussed.

    Episode 113. Timing Matters: Delving into Prothrombin Complex Concentrate with Authors Townsend and Gilbert

    In this episode of the Pharm So Hard podcast, host Jimmy Pruitt interviews Brock Townsend and Brian Gilbert about their study on the impact of time to administration of four-factor PCC for patients with warfarin-associated intracranial hemorrhage. The study was a retrospective observational single-center study performed at a large community teaching hospital. The authors stratified patients into three groups based on time from diagnosis to administration of four-factor PCC. The study found no significant differences in outcomes, such as hemostasis achievement, hospital mortality, length of stay, and adverse effects. The authors emphasize the need for more data and personalized protocols for anticoagulation-related ICH. Takeaways The study found no significant differences in outcomes based on time to administration of four-factor PCC for patients with warfarin-associated intracranial hemorrhage.More data is needed to determine the optimal time to administer four-factor PCC and develop personalized protocols for anticoagulation-related ICH. Standardization of radiologists’ interpretations and reporting of CT scans is important for future studies in this area. The study highlights the importance of resident research in answering important clinical questions. Pharmacists and healthcare professionals should continue to strive for personalized medicine and individualized care for patients with anticoagulation-related ICH.
