Optimizing Empiric Vancomycin Use In Febrile Neutropenia Patients, Nicole Tadros, Erika Dittmar, Radhan Gopalani

Introduction: Febrile neutropenia (FN) is a complication of chemotherapy resulting in a temperature 100.4⁰F or greater plus an absolute neutrophil count (ANC) below 500 cells/mm3 or an ANC below 1000 cells/mm3 and expected to decrease below 500 cells/mm3 within 48 hours. Timely administration of broad-spectrum antimicrobial therapy is a cornerstone for the initial management of FN. However, prolonged empiric antimicrobial treatment can lead to resistance and toxicity. National guidelines and published literature do not support vancomycin as a routine part of empiric antimicrobial regimens in FN; it is only recommended in patients with specific clinical indications. This …

Evaluation Of Clinical Outcomes Of 4-Factor Prothrombin Complex Concentrate Versus Andexanet Alfa In The Treatment Of Intracerebral Hemorrhage, Eduardo Guizan Corrales, Radhan Gopalani, Heidi Clarke, Jonatha Kline, Felipe De Los Rios La Rosa, Thomas Wolfel
Evaluation Of Clinical Outcomes Of 4-Factor Prothrombin Complex Concentrate Versus Andexanet Alfa In The Treatment Of Intracerebral Hemorrhage, Eduardo Guizan Corrales, Radhan Gopalani, Heidi Clarke, Jonatha Kline, Felipe De Los Rios La Rosa, Thomas Wolfel
All Publications
Purpose: Oral anticoagulants account for up to 20% of intracerebral hemorrhages (ICH) with one-year mortality estimated as high as 54%. Several studies have examined the use of 4-Factor prothrombin complex concentrate (4F-PCC) and andexanet alfa in the treatment of factor Xa associated ICH. High cost burden, lack of clinical outcomes, and risk of thromboembolic events continues to be a major dilemma behind product selection at many healthcare systems. The purpose of this project is to compare clinical outcomes between 4F-PCC and andexanet alfa in the management of patients with ICH secondary to apixaban and rivaroxaban at Baptist Hospital of Miami …

Calcitonin Prescribing Criteria For The Management Of Hypercalcemia In A Community Hospital, Jessica Hernandez, Radhan Gopalani, Heidi Clarke, Joyce Lee, Alyssa Donadio

Purpose/Background: Hypercalcemia is a clinical condition in which serum calcium levels exceed the upper limit of normal (>10.5 mg/dL). The most common causes of hypercalcemia are primary hyperparathyroidism and malignancy, however, it can also be caused by vitamin D intoxication, endocrine disorders, and immobilization due to an increase in bone resorption. First-line treatment of hypercalcemia includes hydration with intravenous (IV) normal saline and IV bisphosphonates. Calcitonin (Miacalcin®) is a synthetic hormone with a rapid onset of action and used intramuscularly (IM) or subcutaneously (SQ) as a second-line treatment in the management of hypercalcemia, specifically in severe and in symptomatic …
