@Kineticneuron @spikewhisperer @HSCFoundation @UManitobaNSx @ceaofficialnews @CLAE_LCCE @Medtronic @Brainlab Thank you and Congratulations!!!

It was a privilege to be involved in Tom's journey - and to perform Manitoba's first Deep Brain Stimulation surgery for Epilepsy - many more firsts to come - stay tuned! @spikewhisperer @HSCFoundation @UManitobaNSx @PatPattrott @ceaofficialnews @CLAE_LCCE @medtronic @Brainlab hscfoundation.mb.ca/stories/a-mani…

Tom Trottier lived with up to 10 seizures a month—until a Manitoba-first DBS surgery helped change his path. On Purple Day, we’re sharing his story to raise awareness of epilepsy and innovative care. Read more: hscfoundation.mb.ca/stories/a-mani…

•Study on expert IRR using the VE-CAM-S scale. •Largest errors were 2/2 missing / falsely identifying feats w/ higher weight. •Grading may be improved by breaking high-stakes feats into smaller parts, creating a "cheat sheet" w/ scored examples, & designing teaching materials.
