@JamesBlunt How’d it taste, Blunty?

My life is complete. I am a burger.

@NatTraumaCentre @AustGovernment @MyCareFlight Great work and good luck.

Earlier today, the NCCTRC deployed a six-person AUSMAT team to #Vanuatu on behalf of @AustGovernment after yesterday's earthquake. Supported by the @MyCareFlight jet funded by @AustGovernment, the team will assist the Vanuatu Ministry of Health with emergency response needs

@tarik_sammour @maffygirl Surely the distinguished guests should be listed alphabetically

@maffygirl Oooo you got me!

Well this is nice!

@ACTINOSProject I thought it was obvious

@doug_griffiths @IRONMANtri Good luck with Invictus, Sir.

Don’t waste time. Do that thing. Take risks. Defy the odds. Be different. Live life. No regrets. #fuckcancer

@doctorwibble I’ve been working in anaesthesia for over 20 years and have never felt a need to not administer some form of induction agent and/or analgesia. I’ve probably not been exposed to as many unstable patients as those at this meeting, but cannot imagine myself doing this.

Also known as the “How to torture your patients” panel.

@Peter_Fitz I am an anaesthetist, the oldest of five kids to what was essentially a single income family. Without HECS I doubt I would be where I am today. Subsidised tertiary education levels the playing field and allows those without to learn next to those with.

Very interesting political divide. ALP says it will slash HECS debt. LNP says unfair burden on rest of country. My view, if yers care: We of financially blessed older generations need to do all we can to ease burden on younger ones. #discuss #auspol smh.com.au/politics/feder…

@Peter_Fitz Hate to say it, but Trump 272, Harris 266.

Ok, Friends. Make your predictions for US election. And no deleting it afterwards! I will start. Kamala to win by 7 electors. Post below. We will check against results, and winner to get a pat on the back out of Petty Cash. Losers not allowed to whine endlessly & start riots.

Mad as a Katter

@doug_griffiths @InvictusAus @InvictusGames25 Were you at the AIS training camp on the weekend? I helped provide a doctor as support.

Very humbled to report I have been selected as part of team @InvictusAus . for @InvictusGames25. Such an honour and a privilege to represent Australia at this amazing event. invictusaustralia.org/team-australia…

@GongGasGirl Who?

@maz_jovanovich I’ve staffed polling places before when my dad ran for local government. It is very convivial. There’s no bickering and no arguing.

@GongGasGirl @jeffgadsden I should clarify. Two vascular posts per month, not two AAAs, although some months I would do multiple open AAAs. I couldn’t tell you my volume of practice for open AAAs as I stopped keeping track after getting my FANZCA in 2010 and only restarted in December 2022.

@GongGasGirl @jeffgadsden Nah. Two in the last 18 months as opposed to six EVARs. I haven’t done regular vascular lists since February. I did two per month for over ten years up to that point.

Question for #MedTwitter: When I first trained in anaesthesia, gastric tube insertion was routine during lap chole. When do you routinely use gastric tubes? Has gastric #pocus changed your practice? Ping @jeffgadsden #Blocktober24 #blocktober

Do you remember when you joined X? I do! #MyXAnniversary

@KathaSchmack I had an encounter with them once: “What do you do for work?” “Anaesthesiologist” “Oh you’re the guys who kills patients then bring them back to life” 😬
