@almoskow @EM_phile @kurzmc @sawyer_kn @BenjaminAbella @OscarJMitchell @MHayes_MD @JoshDavisMD @ERC_resus @KateMBerg I did a CPR training course for younger kids- and The Bee Gees didn’t really strike a chord!
Justin Timberlake- “Rock Your Body” is another good one, seems relatively current :)
Row row row your boat also works- per one of my amazing EMS colleagues- for the little ones.

A young Asian physician finds her voice while navigating sexism and racism throughout her medical training @doctordianasaur link.springer.com/article/10.100…

My friend Dr. Diana Zhong @doctordianasaur shared her powerful experiences with racism and sexism in medicine: rdcu.be/cnrkO. Inspired by her strength and resilience. We must do more as a profession to eliminate racism and sexism in our society. #WomenInMedicine #Racism

@NickJohnsonMD Having used both this and arrow kits, I prefer micropuncture for arterial access all the way. Going venous? Just hand me a Cook needle.
English
This kit is a game-changer. If you’re not using Micropunture already for arterial and venous access, I highly recommend.
Tim Montrief@EMinMiami
Interested in using Micropuncture kits for difficult vascular access? See how @MRamzyDO @long_brit and I use them in everyday practice. Letter to the editor in American Journal of Emergency Medicine. #FOAMed #MedEd sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

This is Adeline Marie Fagan, MD. This vivacious, sweet soul was my resident. A 28 year old PGY II in Ob/Gyn in Houston , Texas. Today, she became one of the 200,000 Americans who died of Covid 19. There is so so much pain in this world😭.
