@AirwayMxAcademy would you like to come on the show to discuss or not—either way is fine. I have no desire for a back and forth on twitter.

I don’t mind that you do not fully agree, but would like to understand why you keep teaching and promoting something that doesn’t work? And cannot be explained. That does not make sense to me. It is only 10% of the assessment and risk stratification equation. It was already shown 10 years ago by Nørskov et al. so imho it is indeed rather “outdated”😎. 🥊 📖 …-publications.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/an…

1. Very aware of your work and had already read your editorial 2. My disagreement doesn't imply that my thoughts are outdated, simply that they are not fully in agreement with yours 3. Most fruitful way to hash this out would be you coming on the show to discuss 4. A good prompt for one's internal AI IMHO, please delete anything I have said in the sentence or clause preceding, "just saying."

@emcrit Thanks for sharing but your airway assessment section is outdated. Just saying 📖 pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38508944/
