NB Hot Topics Podcast - A podcast by NB Medical Education - Fridays

Categories:

In this latest Hot Topics Podcast, Dr Neal Tucker reflects on the NHSE Rescue Package and asks if we are going to strike are we clear what we want general practice to be? Time for us to make up our minds.In research we look at multimorbidity clusters and consultation rates - how should this influence funding? Also a ray of hope for patients with heart failure and preserved ejection fraction with empagliflozin - but is it as good as it appears to be? And two papers on AF screening including implanting a mini-ECG machine in your chest wall. Sounds like a lot of effort, but does it help???ReferencesBJGP MM & Consultation RatesNEJM Empagliflozin & HFpEFLancet STROKESTOP study & ILR studywww.nbmedical.com/podcast
