  • April 4th, 2024 Geriatric Journal Club

    Meeting Recording

    Dr Vikas Reddy will educate us about where Empagliflozin fits in the appropriate treatment of patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction. Heart failure, like diabetes, has become so complex with so many options, it will be instructive to try to put all of this into focus in order to make better clinical decisions for patients.

    Following Dr. Reddy, Dr. Gahm discusses some of the latest geriatric topics such as updates on controversial FDA rulings and an uptick in C. Auris infections.

    Urine PCR Testing and Diagnosing UTIs: The newest lab is not always better

    This month we delve into PCR testing of urine. Since our goal is to improve patient care, we would not want to use this test if it does not improve patient care. Please join us as well as experts from CDPHE who may also weigh in on the topic.
