COVID-19 Update 85 with Roger Seheult, MD of Medcram.com https://bit.ly/46YlSCq Dexamethasone has shown a significant mortality benefit in COVID-19 patients requiring oxygen treatment (non-invasive and mechanical ventilation) in the RECOVERY trial out of the United Kingdom. Dr. Seheult continues his discussion about a variety of key concepts and questions that you should consider asking if you or a loved one go to the hospital for COVID-19. Topics include: dexamethasone, other treatments (such as Remdesivir, convalescent plasma, and tocilizumab), supplements such as vitamin D, lab results such as D-Dimer, and C-Reactive Protein. Advanced directives (DNR status) and palliative care are also discussed. (This video was recorded June 16, 2020).
