1) In case of poorly controlled hypothyroidism, why don’t we choose option delay routine treatment (page 25 in our book)?
2) If there is a gumma on the picture and we have a treatment template. Should we choose both systemic antimicrobial and medical evaluation or just medical evaluation? Sorry, doctor Hafez talked about it on the video, but I didn’t catch the idea. 3) If we have a pediatric patient and a pt management template. Should we consider the option – avoid opioids, as the patient is under age 12?
No, we will only follow exactly whats in the book, because it is evidence based. Any other conclusions cannot be confirmed. It is therefore better not to choose it
1) Sorry, I mentioned poorly controlled=unconrolled hypothyroidism. In that case we have an ASA IV patient with poorly controlled systemic disease , so we should add the option delay routine treatment to management, but on page 25 in our book there isn't this option. Maybe I am incorrect
1) The question is, what are you worried about in controlled hypothyroidism? Why do you think we should delay treatment?
2) Dr Hafez explained that you would choose medical evaluation only if the patient was undiagnosed. As gumma is a tertiary stage of syphilis, by then the case would probably be diagnosed 3) We wouldn't choose it. The thing is we wouldn't prescribe it, but we don't specifically want to say "avoid" it. There would be better options
