Sign up now! Blocks for upper limb arthroplasty #CASAM2025 This is always a fun one. Should be a good review of tried, tested, and true brachial plexus blocks. @CASUpdate @CAS_RegAnes @DalAnesthesia

Halifax, we’re coming back in 2026! One of the most packed stops on the calendar — shorelines overflowing, spectator boats everywhere, and a city that shows up like no other. Let’s do it again! 🇨🇦

@Super70sSports No love for robotron on these lists. Loved that game

You enter a classic arcade with every 80s game that you like. Everything’s a quarter and you’ve got a dollar. How do you spend it? I’ll start: Galaga Track and Field Pole Position BurgerTime

@SailGPCAN Amazing effort! Races consistently getting better!

Amazing second day of racing in Sydney. We went from 7th on the event leaderboard to making the final and finishing 2nd! Great effort by the entire team 🇨🇦⭐️👊

@robyn_doucet @BikeMayorHfx @Doctors_NS @DalAnesthesia Boooooo. Sorry Robyn 🤬😥

@BikeMayorHfx @Doctors_NS @DalAnesthesia

My new bike was stolen in the middle of the day from @HealthNS VG outside the @cancercarens Dickson building. Helpfully the security said there are no cameras and he "doesn't have a good view" and my bike was the closest to the front door. How can we expect people to not drive?

Anaesthetists should adopt a patient‐centric approach to labour analgesia and embrace the combined spinal‐epidural Ron George & @ruthi_landau - @Anaes_Journal #OBAnes #LaborDoesntHaveToHurt Wiley Online Library …-publications.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.111…

@Ron_George @SOAPHQ @MySMFM @ASRA_Society @LimGrapes @IARS_Journals @CarvalB @ruthi_landau @UofTanesthesia @uoftobgyn @SinaiHealth @UHN @CASUpdate Congrats ron et al! Important work.

Just published!!! @SOAPHQ, @MySMFM, and @ASRA_Society consensus statement on pain management for pregnant patients with opioid-use disorder Congratulations @LimGrapes

@OBsleepmerchant Thanks for all the summaries simon! Appreciate it.

Dr Eva Roofthooft closes the session with maintenance techniques for LEA, looking at the 4 available options. #OAA3dc24 #3DC24 #OBAnes.

@ruthi_landau @YavorRM @OAAinfo @SOAPHQ @noolslucas @IJOA_Journal @ASALifeline @Ron_George @Assoc_Anaes 💯🙌

#OAA3DC2024 @YavorRM Dr. Melissa Bauer @OAAinfo @SOAPHQ Great first session and wonderful #ObAnes discussion My favorite question from the audience “what is #DPE” 🤣 And @noolslucas comment “why would you puncture the dura and not give the therapeutic solution” Could not agree more !!!

@OBsleepmerchant Not gonna lie. Will always believe in the powers of the pull back. 😃

Now I know @bmacaulay2000 would argue that pulling the epidural back has a place, but the concern around replacing the dressing are probably more widespread in this audience #OAA3dc24 #3DC24 #OBAnes

Scenario: Trump is elected. Trump immediately cuts off funding for Ukraine's defense, NATO (US allies) are in turmoil as Russian troops start to mass at Poland's border. Poland and other countries call for a US response, they are ignored. Meanwhile Trump again starts a trade war with China, imposing heavy tariffs not only on China, but on US allies like Canada and the EU. Food prices in the USA skyrocket. Several incursions on Polish territory by Russian Troops takes place. NATO decides to move into a defensive posture against Russia without US backing. President Xi of China sees the USA as weak for not defending a NATO ally and moves it's NAVY into Taiwan's territory - a land invasion seems imminent. Trump threatens China economically, but since he's put such heavy tariffs on China, it's meaningless. China invades Taiwan - Trump does nothing. Taking a hint from China, Russia moves more Troops onto Polish land, Putin knows Trump won't do a damn thing - Trump's Putin's buddy. NATO and Russia go to war without the USA. Meanwhile in the USA, jobs are being cut because of the skyrocketing costs of goods, social unrest is at it's maximum. Angry people march in the streets demanding something to be done about the economic catastrophe that is happening, and they are met by federal troops as Trump declares a state of emergency and martial law is imposed. Democratic Senators and Congressmen are arrested by Trump loyalists, and there is nothing anyone can do about it because MAGA owns the Executive Branch and the Judicial Branch - the legislative branch is now meaningless. People are arrested for speaking out against Trump - the Constitution is nullified, and in place of it a new Evangelical Theocratic State is installed, which gives the president unlimited power and names him as "Gods Messenger". Fuck around and find out.

@BrentStaeben He’s a good cat. Nice dude, good doc.

@BrentStaeben @TheFwordNB Yeah I get that. Maybe move VIPs and talkers way to back. 😂

@BrentStaeben @TheFwordNB I would pay extra for a place where people wouldn’t yell at each other over the performers.

@jacksotica Amazing show by them at misty moon in, I believe,1991. On top of great Elvis impersonation, tortelvis (the singer) jumped behind the kit for a chunk of moby dick!

@FionaMattatall Sheesh. Just finishing resus of same
