Bedside-ready playbooks turn cirrhosis admits into clear next steps for hospitalists. In fast, case-based sessions, you’ll diagnose ascites and infection, start evidence-based therapy, and monitor response; apply decisive algorithms for encephalopathy, kidney injury, bleeding, and clot risk; and initiate discharge plans that link transplant, palliation, and MAUD—accelerating care that reduces complications and readmissions.

Between ward rounds and rapid responses, a substantial share of strokes begin on the floor—will your team spot them in time? This case-driven update helps hospitalists identify subtle asymmetries, recognize and localize acute lesions, activate and run Code Stroke, and treat or manage seizures, myasthenic crisis, and rising intracranial pressure. Turn guidelines into swift action to cut time-to-therapy and elevate bedside outcomes.

On rounds, evidence moves fast; this rapid update equips hospitalists to translate ADA/EASD guidance into bedside action. Optimize inpatient regimens, initiate GLP‑1 RAs and SGLT2 inhibitors by comorbidity, and manage insulin-centered care safely. Design stronger discharges with simple basal/bolus plans and practical scripts to reduce hypoglycemia and readmissions—so patients leave on therapies that improve cardiovascular and renal outcomes.

Bedside decisions can’t wait. In this case-based, hospitalist-focused course, develop a rapid, structured approach to oncologic emergencies—stabilization first, then disease context—using location, pace, and patient factors to set urgency. Describe stepwise care for hypercalcemia, recognize immune-related toxicities, identify visceral crisis, and construct plans for malignant spinal cord compression to improve outcomes.

Bedside decisions in the fentanyl era can make or break a hospitalization. This rapid update helps you manage withdrawal with person‑first communication and assessment that goes beyond COWS by explicitly evaluating cravings, applying fentanyl pharmacology for safe timing and dosing. Use stepwise protocols to dose short‑acting full‑agonists with IV rescue, escalate methadone, or initiate low‑dose buprenorphine—within legal guardrails—to keep patients in care and cut self‑directed discharges.

Skin speaks fast at the bedside. In this rapid, morphology-first update, you'll synthesize cutaneous clues and timing cues to the Gell and Coombs spectrum, then triage "sick vs not sick" with confidence. Spot SJS/TEN early, differentiate vasculitis from vasculopathy, identify invasive fungal or necrotizing threats, and recognize pyoderma gangrenosum—then apply targeted next steps for safer, faster hospital decisions.

Stress hyperglycemia turns routine admissions risky; transform that risk into reliable care. In this rapid update, recognize how inpatient glucose drives infections, ICU use, and length of stay, then apply evidence from landmark trials and ADA standards to design safer targets and replace sliding-scale with basal-based regimens. Master steroid and nutrition scenarios, avoid high-risk agents, consider modern adjuncts, and finish with a discharge playbook and a look to inpatient CGM.

Bedside decisions shape outcomes—fast. See how diagnosis, the procedure most often performed by hospitalists, is being reshaped by LLMs that have led both to breakthroughs and blind spots. You will evaluate real cases, critique AI outputs, design safer workflows, and apply guardrails that evidence shows can improve accuracy, while anticipating how these tools will affect your team, time, and patients.

Fentanyl-era care moves fast—so will you. In this rapid, case-based update spanning adolescents to older adults, apply evidence to start MOUD confidently, stabilize with high‑dose buprenorphine or methadone, and sustain recovery with extended‑release options. Design micro‑inductions, critique naltrexone timing, and integrate harm‑reduction to reduce mortality and stigma, then ensure safe handoffs that improve outcomes beyond discharge.

Pressed by rising resistance and SEP-1 pressure? In this rapid update, synthesize high-yield moves: don’t treat asymptomatic bacteriuria; at discharge, stop when you can, choose narrower non–fluoroquinolone agents, and document dose, indication, and duration. Then apply tactics to counter diagnosis momentum and interruptions. You’ll treat faster and safer, meet Joint Commission/CMS expectations, and cut adverse events and length of stay.

Frontline teams crave rapid, practical answers for high‑risk operations. Across focused cases, you will determine urgency and timing after PCI, identify cardiac findings that change plans, apply ACC/AHA use of NT‑proBNP and troponin, choose CCTA versus stress tests wisely, and echocardiography only when it changes care, and implement postoperative troponin checks to catch MINS early. You finish with lean care pathways that cut waste, strengthen collaboration, and improve outcomes.

Sleepless at 2 a.m. on the ward? In this rapid clinical update, you’ll understand drivers of inpatient insomnia, examine the latest sleep science, and evaluate risks like delirium and falls. We’ll design and apply non‑pharmacologic protocols, judiciously manage medications, and address team workflows that disrupt rest. Leave ready to help hospitalized patients sleep better—and improve safety, recovery, and morale.

As bedside alarms spike, do you have a ten‑minute plan for AF? In this rapid, case‑driven webinar you will recognize triggers, triage safely, and decide when to cardiovert vs rate control, then manage anticoagulation—balancing DOACs, PCI antithrombotics, and cardioversion timing. You’ll design high‑value discharges, reassess risk after sepsis or bleeding, and optimize outcomes for frailty and falls—and, when OAC isn’t feasible, evaluate LAAO—so you leave with faster, defensible choices.
