New study of over 17,000 #CLTI patients validating predictive ability of #WIfI in predicting outcome @JVascSurg @UCSFvascular @EJVES_ESVS jvascsurg.org/article/S0741-…

ICU stories: Patient underwent laparoscopic colectomy complicated by R paracolic abscess (s/p drainage) & fascial dehiscence. On post-op day 8, at 20:30, he called out for his nurse stating he was having trouble breathing & back pain. He was diaphoretic w O2 sat in 70s at 2 l/m.

ICU snippets: 70 yo. Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. Intubated. Re-arrested many times. Eventually made it to the ICU. ICU Nurse: What maintenance iv fluids do you need, doc? 👨‍⚕️: I don't think we need any maintenance iv fluids...

It’s finally out. Please stop giving Paxlovid to vaccinated people. nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…

Yesterday 2 ULS Genicular Blocks in the ED. Acute on chronic knee pain - both waiting for ortho FU. Thank you - my regional friends for introducing me to this simple block. @jeffgadsden @amit_pawa @ACEPNow @BlockHeads21G Come learn at @ASRA or blockheads-em.com

We are thrilled to welcome these exceptional physicians-DHREM Class of 2028! Each of them impressed us with their achievements, commitment, and humanity-we cannot wait to meet them. #ThisIsDenverEM #Thankful

Proud to be a part of this awesome group of nerve block enthusiasts!!

“A lot of people are doing the work to help reduce health disparities are minority people. And we need this work. If we don’t, who else is going to do it?" Will Mundo is one of our incredible emergency medicine residents working at @uchealth. Read his story. 👇

Thanks for the shout out! ESPB and serratus plane block are great options that if you have experience as an EM physician, you should be doing these for your patients. Lots of benefits for patients. We’re rolling out a study looking at the efficacy of these. Stay tuned!

Juicy knee abscess

@ThinkingCC @heart_lung @khaycock2 @ross_prager @EMNerd_ @ArgaizR Did you actually read it, or just pass judgement based on reading a title?

Oh man. I just can’t. The title alone killed me. I’m afraid to read. Ping @heart_lung @khaycock2 @ross_prager @EMNerd_ @ArgaizR journals.lww.com/ccejournal/ful…

@IM_Crit_ Also useless in the ED setting

ICU Pet Peeves: Fecal occult blood test is a useless test in the ICU setting. Please reconsider if you order one... This is the tweet! #FOAMed #FOAMCC #MedEd #MedTwitter #MedStudentTwitter
