Welcome back Rounds Table Listeners!
In this throwback episode, Drs. John and Mike Fralick discuss two papers – one, exploring IVIG in the treatment of dermatomyositis, and the second investigating the effect of tranexamic acid in patients with acute gastrointestinal bleeding.
- Trial of Intravenous Immune Globulin in Dermatomyositis (0:00 – 8:38).
- Effects of a high-dose 24-h infusion of tranexamic acid on death and thromboembolic events in patients with acute gastrointestinal bleeding (HALT-IT): an international, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial (8:38 – 18:04).
And for the Good Stuff:
- Alberta using humour to attract workers (18:04 – 18:50).
