Aims: A budget impact analysis compared treating patients with heart failure (HF) and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) and iron deficiency (ID) in Switzerland with intravenous ferric carboxymaltose (FCM) or placebo.
Methods: Clinical data from four international randomized trials showed that FCM versus placebo treatment was associated with a reduced hospitalization rate due to HF. The budget impact of this was modelled over 1 year.

The novel coronavirus 2019 pandemic has led to new dilemmas in medical education because of an initial shortage of personal protective equipment, uncertainty regarding disease transmission and treatments, travel restrictions, and social distancing guidelines. These new problems further compound the already existing problem of limited medical student exposure to the field of physical medicine and rehabilitation, particularly for students in medical schools lacking a department of physical medicine and rehabilitation, approximately 50% of medical schools. A virtual medical student physical medicine and rehabilitation rotation was created to mitigate coronavirus 2019-related limitations and impact on medical education.

Background: The visual, ocular motor and vestibular systems have intimate neural and close anatomical relationship that dictates their assessment in a patient with dizziness and vertigo.
Results: Recognition of the pearls and pitfalls of a targeted clinical examination HINTS/HINTS "Plus" allows the clinician to probe at the bedside the most crucial hypothesis in a patient with acute isolated vestibular syndrome, "Is this a stroke?"
Conclusion: By applying a methodical approach to examination of patients with dizziness and vertigo, localization of the offending lesion, management, and even elucidation of the underlying diagnosis is feasible.
