- You have accessInterpreting the estimated glomerular filtration rate in primary care: Benefits and pitfallsJames Simon, MD, Milen Amde, MD and Emilio D. Poggio, MDCleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine March 2011, 78 (3) 189-195; DOI: https://doi.org/10.3949/ccjm.78a.10057
Many laboratories are now reporting the glomerular filtration rate automatically, and primary care providers are left trying to interpret the results.
Burke, James F.
- You have accessDronedarone for atrial fibrillation: How does it compare with amiodarone?Neelima Penugonda, MD, Adam Mohmand-Borkowski, MD and James F. Burke, MDCleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine March 2011, 78 (3) 179-185; DOI: https://doi.org/10.3949/ccjm.78a.10049
Dronedarone’s precise role is yet to be defined, but if it is as well tolerated as hoped, it may help clinicians pursue a rhythm control strategy more often.

The harmful effects are more theoretical than observed. On the other hand, there are also no convincing data to support the benefit of this therapy.

Surgery should not be routinely done. Less-invasive approaches such as gastric and colonic stenting are useful.
