Proponents of screening contend that ...

The "Things We Do for No ReasonTM (TWDFNR)” series reviews practices, which have become common parts of hospital care, may provide little value to our patients. Practices reviewed in the TWDFNR series do not represent “black and white” conclusions or clinical practice standards, but are meant as a starting place for research and active discussions among hospitalists and patients
