Episode 146 - NTG In RVMI With Matt Wilkinson-Stokes
Listen now
Description
Special guest alert!! We're lucky to have superstar Aussie medic and University of Melbourne Ph.D. candidate Matt Wilkison-Stokes, on this episode to discuss his recent paper looking at the risk of hypotension with nitroglycerin administration in acute MI. Where is NTG really more likely to cause hypotension in AMI? When is it safest? How often do isolated RVMI's occur, and what are the correct diagnostic criteria? Dr. Patrick changed his practice based on Matt's work and knowledge. See if you might do the same. REFERENCES 1. Wilkinson-Stokes M, Betson J, Sawyer S.
