Monday’s Spoon Feed : This trial randomized patients with intermediate-high risk PE to anticoagulation or catheter-directed thrombolysis (CDT) and found an improvement in composite primary outcome, driven by improvement in vital signs. Wednesday’s Spoon Feed : In this retrospective cohort study, a single 50 mL dose of 8.4% sodium bicarbonate (HTB) was more likely than 100 mL of 3% hypertonic saline (HTS) to achieve a ≥4 mEq/L increase in serum sodium in patients with severe hyponatremia.
