There may be a few genuinely simple things that we treat, but so many things that come into our exam rooms are complex and sometimes downright confusing. Anticoagulated patients are one of those situations. While the concept itself is pretty simple – medication that thins the blood so that they don’t get clots, got it – the reality of managing an anticoagulated patient is something else. In primary care, we are often either inheriting the patient who is on anticoagulation, or we are following up after someone else st...2022-11-1511 minReal World NPDetermining The Cause Of Microscopic HematuriaIt’s not unusual to be taken by surprise when you see microscopic hematuria on urine dip results.

Learning how to actually have these conversations (or start these conversations, or navigate these conversations)…that’s much more rare. Discussing sexual health doesn’t have to be challenging for patients or providers; with some preparation and some practice, it can become as second nature as any other discussion you have in the exam room. Making assumptions, or avoiding the topic altogether, can create missed opportunities and serious gaps in the patient’s care. A common misconception is that the patients will bring up anything that you should know – in...2022-10-2544 minReal World NPWhat I Wish I Asked At My Job Interview As A Nurse PractitionerYou know that moment in the job interview when they ask if you have any questions?
