| Hypertension - Inpatient management | 28 mai 2026 | 00:14:06 | |
In this episode of Audioboards, we break down the modern inpatient approach to hypertension management based on the latest American Heart Association scientific statement. From hypertensive emergencies to asymptomatic elevated blood pressure, we explore how clinicians should distinguish dangerous end-organ injury from transient stress-related BP elevations commonly seen in hospitalized patients. Through an interactive teaching-style discussion, we cover the A-I-M framework (Assess, Identify, Modify), pitfalls of inaccurate inpatient BP measurement, risks of aggressive PRN antihypertensive treatment, ICU management of true hypertensive emergencies, and the evidence behind avoiding unnecessary medication escalation in asymptomatic patients.

In this episode of the Audioboards we take a deep dive into Altered Mental Status (AMS) — one of the most challenging and high-stakes presentations in medicine. From hypoglycemia and opioid overdose to stroke, sepsis, toxicologic emergencies, and brainstem pathology, AMS can represent a wide spectrum of life-threatening conditions. We break down the systematic ABCDEF approach to stabilization, discuss critical neurologic assessment pearls, explore the broad differential diagnosis using practical frameworks, and compare delirium, dementia, and psychosis in the emergency setting.

| Opioid Withdrawal | 26 mai 2026 | 00:07:14 | |
Welcome back to AudioBoards and another episode in our Intern Series — a crash course designed to help medical students, interns, and early trainees master the high-yield conditions they’ll encounter on the wards. Opioid withdrawal is an especially important topic because it’s incredibly common in emergency medicine, internal medicine, psychiatry, and inpatient care. Recognizing withdrawal early, understanding the physiology behind it, and knowing how to manage it safely can dramatically improve patient outcomes, reduce relapse risk, and, in many cases, save lives.

| Alcohol Withdrawal | 26 janv. 2026 | 00:08:01 | |
Welcome to today’s episode of AudioBoards — the first episode of our Intern Series, your crash course through the most common hospital conditions. Alcohol withdrawal occurs when a chronic heavy drinker suddenly stops or significantly reduces alcohol intake, and symptoms depend on time since the last drink. Within 6 to 36 hours, patients develop tremors, anxiety, sweating, GI upset, and tongue fasciculations. Why does this happen? Think of the brain like a car with two pedals. Severity is measured using the CIWA scale, which guides symptom-triggered treatment rather than fixed dosing. CIWA <10: outpatient care, often gabapentin Benzodiazepines are preferred for self-tapering effects. In liver disease, use LOT drugs — lorazepam, oxazepam, temazepam. If inadequate, phenobarbital may be added with ICU-level monitoring. Hospitalized patients receive thiamine, fluids, and nutrition to prevent Wernicke’s encephalopathy. Symptom-triggered dosing is preferred, with front-loading for severe withdrawal (CIWA ≥19). Dosing in chlordiazepoxide equivalents: Mild: 25–50 mg PO Symptom-triggered: 25–100 mg PO every 4–6 hours when CIWA ≥10, with PRN doses. Fixed taper: Front-loading: 50–100 mg PO every 1–2 hours until CIWA <10 or for three doses Phenobarbital: 10 mg/kg IV over 30 minutes or 60–260 mg PO/IM Thanks for listening to AudioBoards.
