تمت إزالة أكبر جلطة رئوية متجلطة على الإطلاق بطول أحد عشر بوصة، وكان المريض على وشك فقدان حياته أو حدوث انهيار كامل في الدورة الدموية، لكن بفضل الله ثم جهود الفريق الطبي، تم إنعاشه ونقله إلى غرفة العمليات.

@ahmederaky @SUO_YUO I’ve been coding line by line since the iPhone and Android came out. Since I retired from surgical practice, I’ve been using exactly what you described. I haven’t written a line of code for the last 3 months. Very rapid development cycle. Congrats on your work!

I’m a urologic oncology fellow @SUO_YUO , not a full-time engineer. I wanted a faster, cleaner way to log surgical cases, so I built Raivek for iPhone and Apple Watch. Completely private. No data collected. Now live on the App Store: apps.apple.com/us/app/raivek/… #Raivek #MedTech

To test my theory, I created a simulated fascial defect in the cheese, and pulled each of them laterally. I didn't make a video, but when pulling the cheese halves apart, it was evident that the figure-of-eight was considerably more secure than the horizontal mattress (p<0.05).

Surgery resident @AaronGilani asked why people close the fascia of trocar sites with a figure-of-eight suture instead of a horizontal mattress. Let us look at these briefly via one of my experiments. (1/ )

I need @rbarbosa91 perspective on why everyone closes small facial sites with a single figure-of-eight, even though it’s a hemostatic suture pattern, as opposed to, for example, a horizontal mattress.

The world has lost a shining light. @DVervoort94 walked this world with grace, compassion, and a deep passion for health equity. We are heartbroken to have lost Dom and are grieving with his family and all those around the world who knew him and loved him.

@ross_prager Surgical embolectomy avoids risk of partial relief of obstruction with excellent outcome profile. Sternotomy and cardiopulmonary bypass is not a cardinal sin. Can be done safely warm and no crossclamping.

@ross_prager Probable massive PE. Heparinize and support. I usually do surgical thrombectomy. Cardiopulmonary bypass takes care of the instability and embolus removal so soon takes care of everything else. I dislike going to OR without diagnosis, but this is one case where I would.

Patient is post op day 5 of a knee replacement. Suddenly collapses with a BP of 80/40, HR 110, and RR of 32. What's going on? What's your treatment?

@rbarbosa91 Great topic! My call was every other night for 5 y then every night for 2 y. I don’t think that made us better surgeons, but did make us a bit crazy and we put off adulthood.

Short historical🧵on why we have rules now: What happens when working hours are taken to their absolute extreme? Has this happened before? Yes it has...a brief look at surgical residency in Baltimore in the 1940's. To start: residents were 'on' every day for 50 weeks. (1/ )

@rbarbosa91 @andrew_h_shute If no or inexperienced assistant with a large tear, use a Rummel to cinch the first mattress sutures or two. This will buy you time to place more sutures if needed and they can be tied with more control.

It's 4:00 AM and a patient comes in with a stab wound to the heart. Repair it by 4:02 and the patient will walk out in a few days. Wait until 4:05, and he'll be wheeled out in a bag. 🧵regarding a few surgical pointers on repair of traumatic cardiac injuries. (1/ )
