Highlights from ACP Internist and ACP Hospitalist

ACP Internist March 2019:


  • Any patient with asthma may have a flare or asthma exacerbation, so primary care physicians should be aware of risk factors that might alert them to the patients who are particularly at risk.

  • Practice-changing points may influence how internists prescribe aspirin for the primary prevention of heart disease.

ACP Internist February 2019:


  • The conversations taking place at international medical meetings could be taking place at our local chapter meetings.

  • In an increasingly technological word, narrative medicine allows a physician to understand a patient's unique situation, to hear his or her story, and to imagine the world being described.

ACP Hospitalist March 2019:


  • Ongoing growth in antibiotic resistance has highlighted both the importance and the challenge of frontline stewardship.

  • Some hospitals are treating patients' food and housing shortages.
