ED is often 1st-line for pts w/ alcohol withdrawal. CIWA protocols can be tough to do in the ED. Acute management should be thiamine 100 and glucose. If symptoms can give benzos (diazepam 10 prn) https://t.co/y1tSlepzXL #FoaM4Cook @CookCountyEM

Had a patient coming in for chest pain who was ready for discharge after about 12 hours and a negative work up. Started going into alcohol withdrawal, with tachycardia being the only presenting sign! #FOAMed #Foam4Cook https://t.co/mgH30fXopI
