"We...need to be cognizant of these discrepancies and the biases that exist in our medical technology." Drs. @ScottKetchamMD & Sarah Adie (@UMichPharmacy) to @CBSDetroit on racially biased pulse oximeter readings affecting Black patients with heart failure:cbsnews.com/detroit/video/…

New @umichmedicine research finds that racially biased pulse oximeter readings may further limit opportunities for Black patients with heart failure — who are already less likely to get treatment — to receive therapies such as heart pumps and transplants: michiganmedicine.org/health-lab/ina…

Check out our new review article led by the brilliant Sarah Adie!

Important work done by Nandiwada et al. that highlights the importance of CICU providers/teams having a strong working knowledge of the management of IMV for an increasingly complex population @ElliottMillerMD @HalliePrescott academic.oup.com/ehjacc/advance…

@MehwishAhmedMD @AllenLeeCUHK @umfoodoc @UMichGIHep That's awesome! Congrats!

So excited to be presenting my research on risk factors for IBS-like symptoms in quiescent IBD at DDW this year! Thanks for all those who made this happen @AllenLeeCUHK @umfoodoc @UMichGIHep #DDW2021

@LaginaMadeline @UM_IntMedCMRs Wow. That is so cool. Also, have a little free time in the unit these days?

I will not be apologizing for the octopus/ICU puns. @UM_IntMedCMRs, I will be apologizing for using up the dry erase markers #MedTwitter #ArtTwitter

New article comments on death and dying in #COVID19. See the original research in @AnnalsATS and @Crit_Care. @UM_IntMedCMRs @umichmedicine @UMIntMed @MichiganPulmCC labblog.uofmhealth.org/rounds/covid-1…

@KentSBrummel @UMichCardiology If you didn't selfie, it didn't happen

Forgot to take the selfie but still very grateful to get the Covid vaccine today! Also grateful to the @UMichCardiology faculty for the care package! #VaccinesSaveLives #coronavirus

See the original study examining causes of death in patients with respiratory failure here, in @Crit_Care ccforum.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11…

More than half of patients admitted with COVID-19 died without friends or family present. This likely reflects the changes in visitation policies during the pandemic, as shown by @tsvalley and colleagues in @ATSBlueEditor atsjournals.org/doi/full/10.11…

How does cause of death differ between #COVID19 and pre-COVID respiratory failure? What does end of life care look like in #COVID19? Find out in new @AnnalsATS study from @umichmedicine! @HalliePrescott @msjoding @ShreddedMoney @UMIntMed @UM_IntMedCMRs atsjournals.org/doi/abs/10.151…
