    Happy to have you with us! Ring in the New Year with clinical updates around piperacillin-tazobactam vs cefepime in AKI, corticosteroids in severe CAP with a clinical trial and several meta-analyses, perioperative management of ACEI/ARBs, and AE in inpatient medicine.

    | 00.33 - Introduction |

    | 01.00 - ACORN trial [JAMA 2023] - In 2500 patients presenting to the ED with sepsis, there was no statistically significant difference in AKI or death @ 14 days with pip/tazo vs cefepime, but cefepime did cause a decrease in delirium or coma free days |

    | 01.55 - CAPE COD with Dequin et al. in France? trial [NEJM 2023] In 800 patients admitted to the ICU with severe CAP, hydrocortisone administration was associated with reduced death from any cause at 90 days and reduced need for intubation |

    • 02.54 - PROSPERO [CHEST 2023] - Doesn’t include Dequin’s study. Concludes that there was a reduced incidence of intubation, but no reduced mortality.

    • 03.26 - CID meta-analysis including the CAPE COD study by Dequin et al. [CID 2023] many studies similar to the PROSPERO study, but including Dequin et al. Therefore resulting in the conclusion of decreased mortality on top of reduced intubation.
