@BradSpellberg @boulware_dr While I obv share your world view on this and many things...to be fair, if you removed guns (+/- opiates) from the picture, the US healthcare value equation (life expectancy/$$ spent) wouldn't be *so* abysmal...
English

@boulware_dr Here’s another one. If i told you $4 trillion per year paid for healthcare for Americans, resulting in life spans that are shorter than every other wealthy nation in the world, at a cost per person that is double those other countries, would you say that’s a good value?

Loved seeing this new editorial making the point that it is time to redefine our relationship with pulse oximetry by @vlee_md, Halley Ruppel, and @SchondelmeyerMD...

@AltMiddlePeds @EmpiricGame (2/2)
Relatively poor PPV for flu ICD codes previously described (see refs). Unclear why outcomes worse for misclassified. But can imagine that conflation with h flu has something to do with it (h flu most often diagnosed when found from ET tube, i.e. in really sick kids).
English

@AltMiddlePeds @EmpiricGame (1/2) See table. Good chunk of kids get tamiflu prior to admission. And, a lot of it comes from paraflu and h flu which of course have some linguistic similarities. So, presumably hospital coder sees "parainfluenza" and mistakenly enters influenza into admin database.

English

So admin database used for studies of oseltamivir for inpatient peds flu are often misclassifying illness. Lots of kids without influenza have icd 10 codes for influenza.

@EmpiricGame you got it right! (And, misclassified kids have worse outcomes, which likely explains the apparent benefit seen in at least 4 prior studies using administrative data)

@sgdambrauskas Wow, thank you! For those interested but who do not speak Spanish - you can use the youtube translate function.
With permission I might have to quote you on "don't play Nostradamus"...;)

Bronchiolitis season has started! If you haven't read @safelydoingless article on day of illness and continue to teach and tell families day of illness matters please read. publications.aap.org/pediatrics/art…

@adamsonjon @mommimaya Another interpretation of Figure 1 is that most (over half) kids *aren’t* admitted on day 3-4. More importantly, day of admission is not the same as day of peak illness.
English

@mommimaya @safelydoingless If the most likely day for you to be admitted is day 3-4 then at least by one measure there is some support for the lore
