@Tim_Burgess @BorisJohnson Serious question - if this story is allegedley covered by a superinjunction - but I dont know that because the superinjunction is supposed to be secret - can I get in trouble for repeating it ? #jobsforsex

@ailsybird @Matersurgery Welcome home!!

Now it’s great to be getting home to my husband and my two boys, the most supportive family I could have wished for. Next stop: @Matersurgery 👩‍⚕️

Can’t believe my fellowship year @royalmarsden has come to an end. An incredible opportunity. Surgical highlights •⬆️case volume (400 ops,>120🤖 ) •urology/gynae ➡️ familiarity with ✈️s I usually see from the other side •pelvic side wall & sentinel LND •TPE and sacrectomy

This could be the reality this Summer in a reimagined and rejuvenated Salthill. Imagine the possibilities that a #WildAtlanticGreenway could bring to the village and city. Dust off those 2016 plans @GalwayCityCo and let's make it happen. 🌞🚲🎡🏖️🚴‍♀️🚴‍♂️

Quiz time:

Understanding your anaesthesia workstation. Here are two images showing related (but different!) pieces of equipment. Explain the separate purposes of the indicated equipment in A and B

@drmoleary Time for an RCT I think...?

@drmoleary Another single centre retrospective study showing the same thing... jamanetwork.com/journals/jamas…

@drmoleary You heard it here first!!

Sometimes you don't need an echo! A bonus image from Galway ICU: This shows attennuation/loss of the Y descent in a CVP trace of a ptient with cardiac tamponade I have labelled the a waves and one X descent A classic sign!

@ailsybird @drmoleary You probably wouldn’t be gone on the $4750 version then! It looks like it fits your description but costs a fortune.

@Drdavidc9 @drmoleary I saw this one and thought $725 a bit steep when it doesn’t even include camera! Not sold on it or loupecam offerings.

Researching a wearable camera to record operations for research/training (GDPR compliant). GoPro headmount hasn’t worked for me as heavy and doesn’t get the view needed, ideally camera would sit between eyes or be mounted on glasses. Any surgeons or techies out there got tips?

@ailsybird swissurgicalvideo.com/product/surgic… This setup looks good, we were looking at it for some anaesthesia training videos. One of our gynae oncologists has purchased it recently. @drmoleary

Needs to video 60mins plus or with wearable external battery, high definition footage, ideally with voice activation, audio recording, wearable with view between eyes, large memory or Bluetooth transmission of file. Ideally incorporated into a headlamp. I suspect doesn’t exist 😔
