REBOOT #230 Kittleson Rules Heart Failure The Curbsiders Internal Medicine Podcast

    • Medicine

Does the thought of managing acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) give you paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea?  Recline for a bit while Dr. Michelle Kittleson MD, PhD @MKittlesonMD (Cedars Sinai) takes us through the Zen of jugular venous pressure (JVP) exams, how to approach diuresis, and the fine points of hospital discharge. This knowledge food is easier to swallow than an oral potassium replacement. Enjoy this Curbsiders classic and stay tuned this Wednesday, September 1, 2021 for a brand new CHF Triple Distilled episode.
