Episode Synopsis

Welcome to the ninth episode of "What we have learnt this week…..". These are short, 15minute, podcasts where we discuss topics that we have encountered the preceding week; whether it be on the wards, in a journal, at teaching or even on twitter! This week Chris, Emma and Vicky are recording during lunch at their regional geriatrics teaching day. They will be discussing myeloma and MGUS; attendance and carers allowance and dual anti platelet therapy in minor stroke and high risk TIAs.   Useful links this week are: https://www.gov.uk/attendance-allowance https://www.gov.uk/carers-allowance https://b-s-h.org.uk/guidelines/guidelines/investigation-of-newly-detected-m-proteins-and-the-management-of-mgus/ https://www.stroke.nih.gov/documents/NIH_Stroke_Scale_508C.pdf https://www.bmj.com/content/363/bmj.k5130/rr-0
