  • More great Edutainment!

    Sara and the crew do a really great job of capturing the thought process, development of a differential and then do a deep dive into the topic. Really a fun and effective way to do continuing education. As an infectious disease specialist that got their MD last century I find this so much more effective than listening to the same lectures with only minor updates. Now how do I get CME for what is a much better use of my time!

Q: When is the appropriate time to place a new device back after extraction?

Q: What should we consider before extracting a cardiac device in a patient reluctant due to complication concerns?

128: StAR: Complexities in CIED Infection
Q: What are the best next steps for this patient with signs of inflammation?
For this patient presenting with pocket site inflammation, the only reliable step is to conduct blood cultures to determine if there's an infection.
