Surgery is a "wicked" environment: feedback is delayed, noisy, and often biased. My essay on why experience doesn't always equal mastery, and how to learn when the feedback loops are broken. leezhaomd.org/post/the-wicke… #MedTwitter #Surgery #MedEd

Thanks to everyone who's completed this! Sadly, we don't have a single respondent from Northern Ireland - would be nice to have views of clinicians from across the UK. If you know any NI-based IBD physician/surgeon/CNS, please share. Will close study on 31.7.25

The current best practice is to clip right colon polypectomy >20mm to reduce delayed bleeding. This is one of my favorite tools , ⁦@bostonsci⁩ Mantis Clip, performing clip-and-drag button closure technique (widest part first to make 2 smaller defects). #GITwitter
