@evrisupportline - cos I was away on holidays for more than 10 days you won’t let me speak to a human being. I have someone else’s parcel and mine has t been delivered. As usual your customer care is appalling.

@FirstBusnews - £100m profit last year - what a price gouging rip off this is. £9 for a 30 min journey on a rammed clapped out double decker. #ripoff #firstbus

Following on from the publication of the hotly anticipated SUB30 study of prehospital extracorporeal CPR (ECPR) for refractory out of hospital cardiac arrest, it was a pleasure to attend the @FPHCEd webinar with @drmamoun01 @GomorraDoc Dr Ben Singer and Dr Jey Jeyanathan 1/

Hoping to see a big step forward for patients / families / friends. Putting the patient at the centre of care in the pre-hopsital environment. thejournal.ie/taoiseach-emer…

Ireland as an outlier in the pre-hospital care of people. Not for lack of hard work of the staff on the ground. System changes required - we could be doing much more!

Concerns raised that Irish emergency medicine model is 'failing' severely ill and injured people (via @thejournal_ie) jrnl.ie/6379063

3/3 But UK voting public is watching 👀- even this group of @DailyMailUK readers polled 2wks ago 👇say its the most important of @RishiSunak's 5 pledges & the SINGLE one seperating @Conservatives & @UKLabour RT if you want this / next goverment to fix #RETENTION #FIXPAY

1/ VITAL🧵 So people have had a couple of days to digest the DDRBs "independent" reports & their imposition by governemnt. TLDR;they represent further MASSIVE pay cuts. Lets start with some history and look at what happened BEFORE the current high inflation Pls read all/RT

Now, this is some freaky 💩. The question, now, is whether we should be administering sedative/hypnotics to patients during CPR. While we need more data, this high-quality prospective study suggests yes. Of the 28 available for interview: -39% had recall, most commonly emergence sensations, followed by a dream-like state -one patient was able to repeat back to them the audio recording they played in their ears during CPR -one patient described the doctor's appearance running the code -22% had near-normal EEG recordings sustained up to 60 minutes into CPR -seizure-like activity was seen in 24% of EEGs resuscitationjournal.com/article/S0300-… #emergency #emergencymedicine #icu #criticalcare #cpr #heart #life #health #survivor #foamed #foamcc #science #data #research #armyemdoc #medtwitter

Very considered editorial from Halema Shakur-Still and Ian Roberts @CTU_LSHTM on the Patch trial results, very much in line with my editorial comments @CritCareReviews #CCR23. nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…

Hey @NHSEngland, @NHSScotland, and UK #Medtwitter Those UK doctors who moved to my Aussie ED realised we never had an Exit Interview. We never got to share some of the examples of NHS culture that drove us away. Perhaps we can inform you a little with some anecdotes? 🧵

@DrSofiaR @NHS_HealthEdEng Holy cow 😞

This is the last week of HEE and we are looking back at what we have achieved over the last 10 years. Share your memories by commenting below with your memory or achievement of working for HEE using #HEE10 Find out more here: orlo.uk/eHh71 #HEE10Event

So *my* interpretation of the literature, integrated with some priority scoring gives Elective - igel or PLMA Novice at arrest - igel or SLMA Expert airway rescue - PLMA Airway rescue & planned conduit for intubation - PLMA, ILMA or igel For me PLMA covers it all
