@terriermix @cevers21 …or in bad weather. The wheels on the bud should not unnecessarily go round and round regardless of the weather.

@tbouthillet Congratulations! We look forward to seeing the benefits associated with your next endeavor.

We interrupt this regularly scheduled Twitter feed for an important announcement.

@mcmack84 @paswinton @NoobieMatt @HaldenHB @Obidoc @Wokko72 @Jploughrey @jonmcck @Mike_Donald1 @Alastair__Ross @JDF_Keswick @KangarooBeach If you want to DM me an email address I can share a U.S. distributor’s info if you think that might be any easier to deal with.

@paswinton @NoobieMatt @HaldenHB @Obidoc @Wokko72 @Jploughrey @jonmcck @Mike_Donald1 @Alastair__Ross @JDF_Keswick @KangarooBeach Is there a Canadian distributor? Or just UK.

@paswinton looking to revamp airway kit for our little (6 emergency beds) rural hospital. Would SCRAM adult airway bag be a good fit for Emergency Department?

(1) "standard" left hypopharyngeal suction tip park for SALAD of ongoing airway soilage ... (2) laryngoscope park of suction when not needed in airway ... (3) other position being tucked under right shoulder or bed mattress ... (4) the floor #WhereToKeepAndFindRigidSuction

My usual head of bed elevation is typically up to around 30 degrees (Image selfie reversed)

Don’t miss this opportunity.

@TBayEDguy That mask is the best ever!

Actually ... Stay Close Be Apart

Our EMS Program Medical Director, @jducanto provided a great day of airway and SALAD training for our paramedic students today. It is a real pleasure to experience this man’s passion for teaching. Thanks for a great day, Doc!

@allycat6170 The ability to be kind is far more powerful and has an effect lasting longer than any medication you will ever give. I’ve personally received far and away more thank you letters for this than I have for all other medical procedures combined.

94% of people die after being shocked by a defibrillator. We shouldn’t blame the defibrillator for their death. #KetamineIsNotTheProblem

Take the time, it’s more than worth it.

Spent just a little time playing with our new @AnatomageTable today. This is a great time to be alive with technology what it is. @jducanto

Make it your habit to have suction in right hand at the start of all emergency intubations DL only or VL only or DL/VL combo IMHO (updating patreon.com/posts/39989232)

We just went live with our @Handtevy mobile app and are readying ourselves for use in primary #emseducation. Improving preparation related to pediatric care is our #CQI focus for this upcoming year.

One of the many little things that really are big things.

More emphasis on this topic needs to take place, especially in the setting of layperson CPR training.

Wrestling a Sea-Long NIV helmet onto a @CAEHealthcare manikin is a chore for one person. Looking forward to adding this to critical care transport simulations in our programs this fall.
