Great work by EM-CCM fellow Mike Self on describing disparities in ventilator settings in the ED. @UCSDEMResidency @AtulMalhotra13 Disparities Exist in the Application of Low Tidal-volume Ventilation in the Emergency Department escholarship.org/uc/item/8jz165… @eScholarship @WestJEM

1/Do questions about brainstem anatomy cause you to suddenly get a case of locked in syndrome?! Do you try to localize the lesion or just wait for the MR? Here’s a #tweetorial to help you w/brainstem #anatomy & localization! #medtwitter #meded #neurotwitter #neurorad #radres

@MazenOdish @NIH @DrBobOwens @AtulMalhotra13 @ucsdpccm Sad I can only like this once :)

Just submitted my first @NIH K23 career development grant on #ECMO and #ARDS, clocked in at 113 pages. Thanks to everyone who helped me, especially my mentors @DrBobOwens and @AtulMalhotra13! @ucsdpccm

@DrTimFernandes @DrBobOwens @Stu26428374 @ScrippsRTI @UCSDHealth @UCSD Umm... you are at a party school....

@DrBobOwens @Stu26428374 @ScrippsRTI @UCSDHealth @UCSD Did you look at alcohol consumption and effects on sleep and weight gain? It would be interesting to replicate this study at a ‘party school.’

I heard a few years ago that the "Freshman #15" was due to lack of sleep. Huh... But that was based on questionnaires. So Stuti Jaiswal @Stu26428374 @ScrippsRTI and I decided to study it here @UCSDHealth @UCSD with objective measurements.

Great talk on ICU nutrition by @EMGuidelines at the quarterly @SocalSccm member meeting discussing use of indirect calorimetry to optimize nutrition in critically ill patients! @ucsdaccm @PoojaJaeel @katrinaderry

Writing, briefly. In the process of answering an email, Paul Graham accidentally wrote a tiny essay about writing, and this two-minute read is possibly the best advice you'll ever receive on how to write (and teach) well. bit.ly/3ygD706

@jtrebach Methylene blue + hydroxocobalamin. Blue + red = purple. I've also seen propofol do it, but not that dramatically.

everyone please put your detective hats on and tell me what could be causing this PURPLE URINE! 🤔 🟪
