Emergency Medical Minute - Un pódcast de Emergency Medical Minute - Lunes

Author: Nick Hatch, MD Educational Pearls:   Recent study argues that CHF patients receiving furosemide within 60 minutes of arrival had a lower in-hospital mortality than those receiving it after (2.3% vs. 6.0%, p=0.002). Flaw in study is that there were significant baseline differences between groups.   References: Matsue Y et al.
