  1. I was quite surprised that the nitrospray (I take it is the same as the cardiac nitrolingual spray) is $295 which is absolutely hysterical. The price in NL (so not a 3rd world country) is about E12.41 a bottle (that includes 21% tax) say $14 which more like it but still steep for single use.

  2. Great podcast as usual!
    Would be nice if you discussed perioperative ab prophylaxis in an upcoming Podcast as well!

    Kind regards from Austria,
    Flo
