@DrPayItBack @RobertVaughanNP Atlanta is relatively protected from these

@RobertVaughanNP I live somewhere that does not have floods, wildfires, hurricanes, tornados, tsunamis, volcanos, landslides, avalanches, or blizzards.

Honestly surprised that more people don’t place a premium on living somewhere without natural disasters.

Why is USPS trying to upsell me and sign me up for “exclusive offers” when I change my address?!

Does the airline industry have their own version of #BlameAnesthesia when flights are delayed or cancelled?

Excited to welcome the Class of 2028 👏🏼👏🏼 What an amazing group we get to call our new family ❤️

3/ ✂️Suturing Skills! Practice, practice, practice! Practice both deep closure and superficial closure. Consider Amazon suturing kit (it’s pretty cheap) + YouTube tutorials = 🏆

Cardiac micro-emboli in hip fracture surgery can be observed with echo. Not a far stretch to think this contributes to post-op cognitive dysfunction. @Nadia_Hdz_MD at #WCA2024 #Anaesthesia #Anesthesiology

Ciprofol. New IV anaesthetic agent. Prof Jin Liu at #WCA2024 #Anaesthesia #Anesthesiology

In epidural anaesthesia, is this filter actually doing anything? And while we are at it, is the full sterile outfit and drape necessary for a single shot spinal? #WCA2024

Personally I would be embarrassed, mortified even, to place a consult with no clinical question, but there must be some residencies that drill that out of you.

Why do I love the @NAEMSP conference? I’m holding freeze dried plasma from a single donor in my hand. It’s the weight of a few pieces of paper and can be kept non-refrigerated for months Reconstitute it with 200 mL and it’s ready to be administered. This will be a panacea in trauma care, especially for EMS systems that can’t carry blood, once it receives FDA approval. veli.co/frontlineodp/ #NAEMSP2024 @FL_NAEMSP No COI

@AmolUtrankar @KBFischer Good Samaritan laws typically DO apply to physicians if you meet 3 criteria: 1️⃣You aren’t on duty 2️⃣You don’t have a pre-existing relationship with the patient 3️⃣You aren’t compensated (consider not accepting frequent flyer miles if you do help) ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK54217…

Interesting external ventilation equipment

Today, the University of Chicago cost of attendance is $84,126. $84,126 x 4 Years = $336,504 $84,126 x 5 Years = $420,630 Paid for with 5.5% loans? Defer for 2 years, then pay off over 20 years. How much would you pay for that education? $784,000. For an UNDERGRAD degree.

Every OR targets turnover time every couple of years as an improvement project, says @Amr_Abouleish #CSAWinterConf23 Does cutting a few minutes off of turnover time make a difference? For 2 turnovers, nope. Can't add another case! Look at workflow and system reasons for delays.

@pharmahub_ Seen worse 😅
