PharmDs work in >40 ICU-RCs. To quote 🤩 @ICU_Recovery “If you can only have 1 member besides an MD in your ICU-RC, pick a pharmD” #pharmicu @RimaForAAPS @AngelaSlampak @ItsJessieWhit @GrothChristine @pamelamactavish @janellepoyant @CMcDanielPharmD @syeungpharmd @deepalipharmd

Strength of PharmDs‼️ IN the ICU, #PharmD team members are critical to safe & successful patient care. AFTER the ICU, in recovery, the PharmD is key to medication reconciliation in any ICU recovery center. @icurehab @ICU_Recovery @DaytonICU @JoannaCCPharmD

ICU pearls: When you come on service + you are told that a pt "failed PS trial" the previous day, try to find out what exactly happened. In several cases, the pt had just become apneic... This is not "weaning failure", it is just failure from our part to stop the sedation early!

@mtbastin Many days I don’t even know how I make it through! Our bodies are so incredibly amazing. Somehow, most days, we are able to push through the exhaustion and be the mom, pharmacist, wife, daughter, friend, etc we need/want to be but it shouldn’t be that way.

I don’t think people appreciate the sheer exhaustion which is a mom returning to work from maternity leave..

Thank you for this! So much truth that many don’t acknowledge or speak about

Don't drown your patients in antibiotics. Save $$. Prevent the MDRsuperbug. Consider using a procalcitonin protocol to guide abx use. #ChoosingWiselyICU

It's the job of a PGY2-trained PharmD to speak up and call to question decisions that are made to therapy that are not optimal with our physician colleagues. That's the reason we go through the extra training and are hired to serve in specialist roles in the first place. 1/

I would take it a step further and say: Some aspirations don’t even need abx at all. Aspiration does not automatically mean a bacterial PNA, it can just be a chemical pneumonitis. Less is more. #zentensivist #antibioticstewardship

"Clinical pharmacist.. participation in bedside rounds has been shown to decrease mortality, ICU length of stay, and adverse drug events." yet--> The most common staffing change during COVID was decrease of in‐person pharmacist rounding
