tinylilron so PE was on my differential... why do we immediately jump to pleurisy??? +

etherbunny ...and if aspirin doesn't work, what are the chances of ibuprofen doing much better? +

len49 Stone cold normal vital signs and recent viral infxn symptoms points significantly towards viral pleurisy. Aspirin did relieve the symptoms a bit as well. She gets zero points on the Well's criteria, not sure why PE would be super high on someone's differential. +

dnazmzm What is "splinting"....? +1

lilmonkey Respiratory splinting is defined as reduced inspiratory effort as a result of sharp pain upon inspiration (severe pleuritic chest pain). +

charcot_bouchard Post viral pericardial effusion should be on someone differential!! I pick EKG. +1

charcot_bouchard even in amboss says do a EKG to rule out other cause like peri effusion +

charcot_bouchard Replace all pericardial effusion with Pericarditis. Thats what was in my head +

charcot_bouchard Ok. i got my answer. sx is unilateral. if it was pericardial shit would be in middle on cardiac exam no abnormalities. pericarditis would have scracthing sounds chest xray showed no abnormalities than means no pleural effusion either if it was in someones mind. +1
