Instead of seeking feedback on how you did, it’s more effective to seek advice on how you can do better.

"While I was in the boat, I captured a very beautiful Carib woman... I then took a piece of rope and whipped her soundly, and she let forth such incredible screams that you would not have believed your ears. Eventually we came to such terms, I assure you, that you would have thought that she had been brought up in a school for whores." --Christopher Columbus

@Oleoleg123 @PicturesFoIder Why slow chew is important? 1. Chewing breaks improves nutrient absorption by up to 15-20%. 2. Slower chewing allows brain to put a brake on overeating 3. Careful chewing reduces air swallowing by 40% --less burping, bloating, and skunk butt 4. Less likely to choke

@PicturesFoIder Females are more emotinal and enjoy the food more. While men are more straight forward and will devour anything in 5 seconds if it tastes good☝️

I am curious to know how one might "push the envelope" in this scenario.

My biggest advice to thoracic surg residents & fellows is to learn thoracic anatomy. I mean really learn it. Know it backwards, forwards, upside down. I mean - walk in the room & know what they’re dissecting in a millisecond glance type know it. @ThoracicStudent @TSRA_official

Milad Sharifpour, MD@MSharifpourMD

My biggest advice to anesthesia residents and CCM fellows is to learn physiology. Once you learn how to apply/optimize physiology, you can take care of any patient

Maybe Genuinely curious - is there no one outside the OR who can triage calls while you operate? Or are we just prioritizing availability over focus on the OR?

@Doctor_Chigo @AmJSurgery @SWexner @juliomayol @PipeCabreraV @Cirbosque @pferrada1 @NeilFlochMD @TomVargheseJr @drdevirgilio @DissanaikeMD @rbarbosa91 Another pet peeve of mine is when someone starts discussing the next patient’s case before the current case is over. The patient currently on the table deserves complete attention from start to finish. Discussion of the next case can wait.

English

Elliot Servais, MD, FACS@ElliotServaisMD·25 Kas

I am absolutely fine with music in the OR (in fact, I believe the right music choice can help, not hurt, focus) as long as no one plays the ridiculous “let’s quiz the student on classic rock” game! On the other hand, cell phones and pagers should be banned from the OR, full stop!
