How Patients Die in the MICU A #ProgramDirectorsNote to my @TradIMYale residents open.substack.com/pub/siegelmark…

Withdrawal of life support is NOT hastening death. It is for NOT to prolong their suffering.

Over the last 24 hrs, it has become very clear that the only thing that the insurance companies do not care about is the patients’ health and wellbeing

Over 50% of patients under 60 in California are getting TAVR. This is absurd! Huge shoutout to @JoChikweMD and team for exposing the alarming truth: TAVR has a 250% higher risk of death in 5 years compared to SAVR. annalsthoracicsurgery.org/article/S0003-…

Last week we performed the 700th robotic heart surgery at Baylor St Luke’s. Making us one of the fastest growing programs in the nation & the most experienced robotic heart surgery program in Texas! @StLukesHealthTX @BCM_Surgery @bcmhouston @IntuitiveSurg @TXMedCenter

There are no shortcuts!

#Anesthesiologist and ASA member @alopipatelmd of @thefemalepaindocs had to act quickly to save the life of a patient in labor. When Dr. Patel was experiencing complications with her own labor, she was grateful to have an anesthesiologist in the room. Hear Dr. Patel’s story. 👇

Hypernatremia, intensivists vs nephrologists

I have never seen anyone more dedicated to the well-being of his patients. Patients always came first. He worked super-human hours to save the lives of countless patients-many were turned down by other surgeons because of the risk/complexity of the surgery. He was their last hope

We are talking about someone who has written the book on aortic surgery, the premier minimally invasive surgeon in the US and the surgeon who got a 95 year old DeBakey through a type A dissection. Maybe they all know a thing or two about delegating duties in the OR. Just saying…

Cricket NYC! Long time coming. Don’t know who to root for. IndiaUSA!

Thinking of #VirginiaApgar on her birthday (6/7/1909) & the tremendous impact she has as a @Columbia obstetric anesthesiologist who thought out of the box profiles.nlm.nih.gov/spotlight/cp/f… The Apgar score developed in 1952 still shapes neonatal resuscitation @womenofimpacti1
