Catheter Directed Fibrinolysis for Acute PE (HI-PEITHO), NEWS2 Plus Procalcitonin Reduces Mortality (PRONTO)
Extra, extra, read all about it! We have two "NEWS" studies to talk about in this episode (bad pun). Does catheter directed thrombolysis improve outcomes in acute intermediate risk PE? Does adding procalcitonin to NEWS2 screening of ED patients really reduce mortality in patients with suspected sepsis?? The results may surprise you. Biostatistics ninja and critical care physician Dr. Brian Locke joins us to discuss!

2026 ACC/AHA Guidelines for Acute Pulmonary Embolism
The ACC/AHA published new guidelines for managing acute PE on February 19, 2026. Today I'm joined by Dr. Scott Woller, MD, MACP, FCCP, who was co-chair of the American College of Chest Physicians Clinical Practice Guideline for antithrombotic therapy for venous thromboembolism, last updated in 2021. He also served as co-chair for the peer review committee for these new guidelines, and has lots of great insights into how to use them in clinical practice and research. 2026 ACC/AHA Guidelines for Diagnosis and Managing Acute PE Some highlights from the guidelines: New categories of PE: A: asymptomatic B: symptomatic, low risk C: symptomatic, high risk D: incipient shock E: cardiogenic shock PE response teams (PERTs) are ascendant Use enoxaparin instead of heparin drip!

Anticoagulation in AF with Cirrhosis, Trends in Anticoagulation for Acute PE, Beta Blockers for Acute MI with Normal EF, Finerenone for HFpEF, Continuous vs Intermittent Infusion for Antibiotics, Cefepime vs Piperacillin-Tazobactam for Sepsis
It's been a long time, but we are back! Apologies on the audio quality from Dr. Jenkins. Apparently he was recording from inside a cardboard box. Today we talk about important, practice changing studies in internal medicine from the last several months. What's the best anticoagulant in patients with cirrhosis and atrial fibrillation? Why do doctors use so much unfractionated heparin for acute PE? Should we still be using beta blockers in patients with acute MI? Does finerenone improve outcomes in HFpEF? Is continuous infusion of antibiotics better than intermittent? And will the cefepime vs piperacillin-tazobactam battle ever end?
