Hands are much better than the stethoscope at transmitting disease because hands are warm, moist, and come into unintentional contact with many more types of germs than the end of the stethoscope! But even the stethoscope should be washed between patients!

Please join us for UCLA’s 12th annual Fetal Echo Symposium! If you are looking for practical pearls on how to improve cardiac imaging - this is the course for you!! See link in the comments for details!! @MishellaPerez @msklansky @yafshar @UCSD_ObGyn @uclaobgynedu

How do you clear the fetal heart on the most technically challenging patients? Do you think more formal guidelines are needed for when satisfactory cardiac imaging cannot be obtained? #mfm @MySMFM @AIUMultrasound @FetalHeartSoc @msklansky @yafshar @UCSD_ObGyn @uclaobgynedu

What habit should *NOT* return in the future--even after the #Coronavirus threat is minimized? #DrFauci tells me:

@pitiklinov @Mars_777 youtu.be/mgyAB9-KIHo Por favor espero que le gusta eso film musical original del mundo que explica porque el #handshake no esta una buena idea—en qualquier lingua y en todo el mundo—ahorita y siempre!

Otro artículo sobre la necesidad de restringir el apretón de manos en el medio sanitario. Pero a la vez darse la mano los profesionales o dársela a los pacientes puede confortar y apoyar. Plantean la necesidad de una alternativa. jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/…

Parece claro que tendremos que decir adiós al apretón de manos como saludo. En este estudio encuentran que el "choque de puños” (fist bump) es una alternativa que reduce la transmisión de enfermedades infecciosas.

Some scholars believe that the handshake originated to show that people were not carrying weapons. If true, it makes sense if Americans abandoned the practice. No point in the world's most violent nation offering false gestures of safety; we do enough of that already... #SDHsez

The handshake is believed by some to have originated as a gesture of peace by demonstrating that the hand holds no weapon, back in the caveman days. In Greek art dexiosis 'to give (someone) the right (hand)' was depicted as shaking hands with gods or as a farewell in gravestones
