@phoenixni this is making an already dangerous junction a lot worse. There has already been one accident this afternoon. You need to move these signs ASAP.

@phoenixni your diversion signs currently at the top of the Carrowreagh road junction with Dunlady road are dangerous. They are blocking the line of sight from both directions for traffic leaving the carrowreagh road.

@bbugssuk @HiatalRegistry @Augishealth @RCSnews @RCSEd @roux_group @ViswanathYks @bowling_kirk @MrStuartAndrews I was wondering why there was nothing about NHSR at AUGIS this year?!

@HiatalRegistry we missed your report at @Augishealth ASM this year.
Looking forward to its publication for 2024!

Bariatric surgery is safe however early recognition of any associated complications is very important @IfsoSecretariat @ifso_ec #bariatrics #emergency

Together we need to tackle this regional healthcare inequality NOW.
We are the last country in the westernised world WITHOUT an obesity service. The science & evidence is clear; Intervention + prevention = cost savings. @mikenesbittni

Upper GI surgeons…anyone using mesh sutures (eg Duramesh) for hiatal closure? @MrStuartAndrews @MarcosKostalas @HiatalRegistry @SpenceGary @BigBadBillroth @SMcCainSurgeon

@RobertSowney @RCN_NI @healthdpt Unfortunately I've seen worse. I took this picture of a patient's 'meal' a few years ago. Unsurprisingly they didn't finish it.

We must do better as health care professionals to advocate for patients when this type of food is served to them. This was presented to a patient at a hospital in N.I yesterday. Good nutrition is fundamental to recovery. This tasted as bad as it looked! @RCN_NI @healthdpt

@MStott88 Currently trying to get 2 hot gallbladder lists a week in our trust.
English
If your case is on the emergency list, but you don’t want to do it after 5, it’s not an emergency, it’s urgent, and trusts should work better for “urgent lists” eg hot gallbladder, most of urology except torsion, amputations etc.

The tragedy is that some are fighting for & will vote for “trees, mountains and rivers, (to be) recognised as entities with rights to exist and flourish, to be restored, regenerated and respected.” But voted to remove these rights from Irish unborn babies bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Key points for large Hiatal Hernias - remove the sac - mediastinal dissection - close the hiatus with posterior and anterior stitches - absorbable mesh - NO tackers - one stitch to fix the mesh in place - fibrin glue to fix and cover the mesh @eurohernias @EAES_eu #rnc2023
