    Too Cautious? Rethinking Hyponatremia Correction and DVT Prophylaxis

    With Special Guest Dr. Bianca Farley In this episode of Inpatient Update, Dr. Mason Turner is joined by hospitalist Dr. Bianca Farley to examine two practices driven largely by fear of rare but devastating complications: Are we correcting severe hyponatremia too cautiously? Does pharmacologic DVT prophylaxis improve outcomes that actually matter to patients? Two common hospitalist decisions. Two deeply ingrained habits. Two areas where the evidence may be more nuanced than many of us were taught.  Articles & PubMed Links Sodium Correction Rates and Outcomes Among Patients With Severe Hyponatremia Annals of Internal Medicine (2026) Retrospective cohort study of nearly 14,000 hospitalized patients with severe hyponatremia (Na ≤120 mEq/L).  Compared: Slow correction: 12 mEq/L per 24 hours Primary Outcome Composite of:   90-day mortality  Delayed neurologic complications  Key Findings Slow correction had the worst outcomes Moderate correction reduced adverse outcomes Fast correction reduced adverse outcomes even further Primary outcome occurred in 21% of patients overall Faster correction was associated with significantly lower risk of death or delayed neurologic events compared with slow correction. What About Osmotic Demyelination Syndrome? The traditional fear of overcorrection continues to matter, particularly in high-risk populations, but this study suggests that aggressively avoiding correction may also cause harm.  Takeaway → Avoiding overcorrection remains important.  → But correcting severe hyponatremia too slowly may also worsen outcomes. → A reasonable target may be 8–10 mEq/L/day rather than reflexively aiming for the lowest possible correction rate. Pubmed: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41587479/ Pharmacologic Thromboprophylaxis in Medical Inpatients JAMA Network Open (2026) Systematic review and network meta-analysis of 22 randomized trials involving 43,840 medical inpatients.  Compared: Low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) Unfractionated heparin (UFH) Direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) No pharmacologic prophylaxis Key Findings Symptomatic VTE Baseline risk without prophylaxis: 1.7% at 90 days LMWH: Reduced symptomatic VTE RR 0.68 (95% CI 0.49–0.94) Clinically Relevant VTE LMWH RR 0.57 DOAC RR 0.58 UFH RR 0.66 Mortality No mortality benefit with any regimen. Major Bleeding DOACs increased major bleeding UFH increased major bleeding LMWH showed no statistically significant increase in major bleeding. Interpretation Pharmacologic prophylaxis reduces VTE events, but: Absolute VTE risk is relatively low Mortality is unchanged Bleeding risk must be considered Patient selection matters Takeaway → DVT prophylaxis works, but mostly by preventing relatively uncommon events.  → Benefits are greatest in appropriately selected high-risk patients.  → LMWH appears to offer the best balance of efficacy and safety. Pubmed: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/42138924/ Practice-Changing Takeaways Severe Hyponatremia Fear of osmotic demyelination has likely pushed many clinicians toward overly conservative correction. Emerging evidence suggests slow correction may itself be harmful. Consider targeting meaningful correction rather than simply avoiding overcorrection. DVT Prophylaxis Prevents VTE. Does not appear to reduce mortality. Absolute benefit is smaller than many clinicians assume. Risk-benefit assessment remains essential. Clinical Pearls The most feared complication is not always the most common complication. Many hospital practices persist because of rare catastrophic outcomes rather than aggregate patient outcomes. The best question is often not "Can this happen?" but "What happens most often?" Bottom Line If you change nothing else this week: Reconsider whether your severe hyponatremia patients are being corrected too slowly. Remember that DVT prophylaxis prevents clots, but has never clearly been shown to save lives in general medical inpatients. Sometimes the greater danger isn't doing too much—it's doing too little.

    Shorter CAP Antibiotics + The Cipro QTc Myth

    With Special Guest Dr. Ernest Murray In this episode of Inpatient Update, Dr. Mason Turner is joined by hospitalist Dr. Ernest Murray to challenge two common antibiotic reflexes in hospital medicine: Do hospitalized patients with community-acquired pneumonia really need 5–7 days of antibiotics?Do we need to panic about QT prolongation every time we prescribe ciprofloxacin?Two everyday prescribing decisions. Two long-standing assumptions. Two areas where the evidence may support a more precise approach.  Articles & PubMed Links3–4 Days vs ≥5 Days of Antibiotics for Community-Acquired Pneumonia Annals of Internal Medicine (2026) Target trial emulation using >55,000 CAP hospitalizations across 60+ hospitals. Compared: 3–4 days antibiotics vs ≥5 days antibioticsAfter strict inclusion/exclusion criteria, ~5,600 clinically stable patients were analyzed. Excluded:  Immunocompromised patients  Severe chronic lung disease  Drug-resistant organisms  ICU-level illness  COVID-19 Primary Outcomes  30-day mortality  Readmissions / urgent visits  Antibiotic-associated C. difficile Key Findings  No significant difference in:  Mortality  Readmissions  Urgent visits  C. difficile infection Interpretation In carefully selected, clinically stable CAP patients:  → 3 days may be enough pubmed: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41974005/ Ciprofloxacin and QTc Prolongation Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy (2026) Prospective study evaluating QTc before and after standard-dose ciprofloxacin.  Baseline ECG obtained  Repeat ECG after reaching steady-state ciprofloxacin levels Key Findings  No statistically significant change in QTc  Mean QTc remained essentially unchanged (~415 ms)  Patients with significant QT prolongation had:  Multiple competing risk factors  Concurrent QT-prolonging medications  Electrolyte abnormalities Interpretation For most stable patients:  → Ciprofloxacin alone does not meaningfully prolong QTc The real danger appears to be:  Polypharmacy  Electrolyte derangements  Critical illness  Multiple simultaneous QT-prolonging factors pubmed: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41628197/ Practice-Changing TakeawaysCommunity-acquired pneumonia: Stable patients may only need 3 days of antibiotics  “Minimum 5 days” is no longer absolute dogma Ciprofloxacin: QT concern should be contextual, not reflexive  Don’t deny patients effective oral therapy solely out of generalized QT fear Clinical Pearls Antibiotics may not need to “eradicate” infection completely — just shift the balance enough for the immune system to finish the job  Lung microbiome preservation may become increasingly important in future stewardship strategies  Most dangerous QT events are multifactorial, not caused by a single medication in isolation  Ciprofloxacin remains an extremely valuable oral option for:  Gram-negative bacteremia  Pseudomonas coverage  Avoiding PICC lines and prolonged IV therapy Bottom LineIf you change nothing else this week:  Consider stopping CAP antibiotics after 3 days in carefully selected stable patients  Use ciprofloxacin thoughtfully — but don’t reflexively fear the QTcSupport the show Want the cited articles and key takeaways?

    Fewer Bleeds, Smarter Steroids: Apixaban vs Rivaroxaban and CRP-Guided Steroids for Pneumonia

    With Special Guest Dr. Adam Jaffe In this episode of Inpatient Update, Dr. Mason Turner is joined by hospitalist Dr. Adam Jaffe to tackle two high-impact clinical questions: Is there a clear winner among DOACs? Who actually benefits from steroids in community-acquired pneumonia? Two common decisions. New data. Practice-changing implications.  Articles & PubMed Links Apixaban vs Rivaroxaban for VTE (Head-to-Head RCT) New England Journal of Medicine (2026) Randomized trial (n=2,760) comparing: Apixaban vs Rivaroxaban Population: Acute VTE Excluded: active cancer, extreme obesity, other anticoagulation indications Key Findings ↓ Clinically significant bleeding with apixaban ~54% relative risk reduction NNT ≈ 27 ↓ Major bleeding (0.4% vs 2.4%) No difference in: Recurrent VTE Mortality Interpretation Same efficacy Less bleeding with apixaban Takeaway → For new starts: Apixaban is the preferred DOAC pubmed: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41812192/ Corticosteroids in Community-Acquired Pneumonia (IPD Meta-analysis) Lancet Large meta-analysis (n=3,224 across 8 RCTs) Compared: Steroids vs Placebo Primary Outcome: 30-day mortality Absolute risk reduction: 2.2% NNT = 46 🔑 The Key Insight: CRP Matters When stratified by inflammation: CRP >200 Mortality: 13% → 6% Absolute risk reduction ≈ 7% NNT ≈ 14 CRP 200) → Routine use in all pneumonia is not supported pubmed: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39892408/ Practice-Changing Takeaways DOACs: Apixaban > rivaroxaban for bleeding Same clot prevention → choose apixaban for new starts Pneumonia: Steroids may reduce mortality — but only in the right patient CRP can help identify who benefits Clinical Pearls The difference between DOACs is no longer “vibes” — we now have head-to-head data Most steroid benefit in pneumonia appears inflammatory-driven, not severity-driven CRP — often ignored — may actually guide meaningful decisions here Bottom Line If you change nothing else this week: Start apixaban for new VTE patients In pneumonia, check a CRP — and consider steroids if >200 Fewer bleeds.

    Asymptomatic Hypertension & Viral Pneumonia — Stop Overtreating

    With Special Guest Dr. Austin White In this episode of Inpatient Update, Dr. Mason Turner is joined by hospitalist Dr. Austin White to tackle two everyday controversies that affect nearly every admission: Asymptomatic inpatient hypertension — are PRN antihypertensives helping… or harming? Antibiotics for pneumonia with a positive viral panel — do these patients actually benefit? Practical take-homes, real-world night shift scenarios, and what to change on rounds tomorrow.  Articles & PubMed Links:As-Needed Blood Pressure Medication and Adverse Outcomes in VA Hospitals JAMA Internal Medicine (2025) Retrospective cohort of hospitalized patients comparing: Received PRN antihypertensives vs No PRN treatmentKey Findings  ↑ Acute kidney injury (HR ~1.23)  ↑ Rapid BP drops >25% (HR ~1.5)  ↑ Composite outcome (MI, stroke, death) (HR ~1.6) IV meds worse than oral Interpretation  Treating asymptomatic inpatient hypertension is associated with harm, not benefit  Likely mechanism: overcorrection → hypoperfusionTakeaway For asymptomatic hypertension, especially overnight: → Don’t reflexively treat the number → Focus on symptoms and underlying cause Pubmed: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39585709/  Antibiotics for Pneumonia with Positive Viral Testing Multicenter Retrospective Study (2015–2024) Compared: Minimal antibiotics (0–1 day) vs Standard CAP treatment (5–7 days)In patients with:  Positive viral assay  Clinical pneumonia (hypoxia, tachypnea, imaging) Key Findings No difference in:  Mortality  ICU admission  Length of stay  No clear harm signal either Interpretation  Many patients with “pneumonia” + viral panel likely have pure viral illness Routine antibiotics do not improve outcomesTakeaway → If viral etiology fits the clinical picture,  don’t routinely continue antibiotics Pubmed: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41378862/  Practice-Changing TakeawaysHypertension: Treat the patient, not the number  PRN antihypertensives for asymptomatic BP may cause harm Viral pneumonia: Positive viral panel + consistent story → hold antibiotics Reassess if clinical course worsens Both topics highlight: → We often overtreat out of habit, not evidenceClinical Pearls from the Episode The body tolerates transient high BP better than rapid drops  Overcorrection → ↓ cerebral perfusion → bad outcomes  Viral infections (even “mild” ones like rhino/adenovirus) can cause severe illness Antibiotic stewardship = patient safety, not just resistance Bottom LineIf you change nothing else this week:  Stop reflexively treating asymptomatic inpatient hypertension  Stop reflexively continuing antibiotics for viral pneumonia Less intervention.

    De-escalating Sepsis Antibiotics & When to Pull the IV (w/ Nicholas Linde, PA)

    Episode 5: De-escalating Sepsis Antibiotics & When to Pull the IV w/ Nicholas Linde, PA With Special Guest Nicholas Linde, PA In this episode of Inpatient Update, Dr. Mason Turner is joined by hospitalist PA Nick Linde to tackle two everyday decisions that impact nearly every inpatient service: De-escalating broad-spectrum antibiotics in sepsis — is it safe to stop vancomycin and zosyn earlier than we think? Routine peripheral IV use — are we leaving IVs in too long and causing harm? Practical take-homes, real-world cases, and what to change on rounds tomorrow. Articles & PubMed Links Antibiotic De-escalation in Adults Hospitalized With Community-Onset Sepsis JAMA Internal Medicine (2026) Compared: Continue broad-spectrum antibiotics beyond day 4 vs De-escalate at day 4 Key Findings No difference in 90-day mortality (OR ≈ 1.0) Shorter hospital length of stay   ~1 day shorter (MRSA de-escalation) ~2 days shorter (pseudomonal de-escalation) No clear harm signal with de-escalation Takeaway In clinically improving patients with negative or non-MDR cultures, early de-escalation at day 4 is safe and reduces hospital stay. Pubmed: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41428290/  Things We Do for No Reason™: Routinely Maintaining Intravenous Access in Hospitalized Patients Journal of Hospital Medicine (2026) Key Points ~25% of inpatient IVs are idle (not in use) Peripheral IVs contribute to morbidity: ~20% of MSSA bacteremia When to Remove No IV medications or fluids needed Clinically stable patient Oral alternatives available When to Keep High risk of decompensation Anticipated procedures or IV contrast Ongoing electrolyte replacement or IV therapy Takeaway Peripheral IVs are not benign — if you’re not using it, seriously consider removing it. Pubmed: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12865233/  Practice-Changing Takeaways Sepsis: At day 4, reassess. If cultures are negative and patient improving, de-escalate broad-spectrum antibiotics. IVs: “Use it or lose it.” Idle IVs carry real risk — don’t leave them in by default. These are high-frequency decisions → small changes = big impact.Support the show Want the cited articles and key takeaways?

    Faster Hypernatremia Correction & Long-Acting Antibiotics for Staph Bacteremia (w/ Dr. Kevin Baker)

    Episode 4: Faster Hypernatremia Correction & Long-Acting Antibiotics for Staph Bacteremia With Special Guest Dr. Kevin Baker In this episode of Inpatient Update, Dr. Mason Turner is joined by hospitalist Dr. Kevin Baker to discuss two studies that challenge long-held dogma in inpatient medicine: Faster correction of hypernatremia — is the traditional “go slow” rule actually harming patients?Dalbavancin for Staph aureus bacteremia (DOTS Trial) — can two long-acting antibiotic injections replace weeks of IV therapy and PICC lines?Practical take-homes, real-world discussion, and what to change on rounds tomorrow (with a couple of bourbons). Articles & PubMed Links Clinical outcomes of early fast compared to slow sodium correction rate in adults with severe hypernatremia: A comparative effectiveness study Journal of Critical Care (2025) Key Findings Faster correction associated with lower 30-day mortalityShorter ICU length of stayShorter hospital length of stayNo signal for neurologic complications from rapid correctionSupporting data from prior studies: 2023 JAMA observational cohort Faster correction associated with lower mortality No neurologic complications reported2025 Journal of Critical Care meta-analysis Faster correction not associated with worse outcomesTakeaway For adult hypernatremia, especially in critically ill patients, more aggressive correction appears safe and may improve outcomes.
