Mitchell Taylor

It was my absolute pleasure to take part in the Australasian EDS echo education series this week highlighting the often overlooked role of breathing and breathing patterns in EDS. Thanks to Nicole Frost and the ECHO team for putting on a great month of inspiring content 🎉

Today Mitch worked with this fabulous group of physios. The goal - to develop a group of expert cardiorespiratory physiotherapist providing evidence based services in private practices all around the country! 🎉 Thanks to all who joined us for a great day of learning.

WELCOME Kat Symeou Respiratory Speech Pathologist Kat specialises in: 📍Flexible Endoscopic Evaluations (FEES) 📍Swallow assessments 📍Voice disorders 📍Upper Airway dysfunction including assessment and management of Chronic Cough/Laryngeal Hypersensitivity 📍ILO/VCD

@georgentou1 @jstgeorgemd Awesome!

@jstgeorgemd be a great skill for ICU physiotherapists to acquire to better understand cough, better navigate interventions such as nasotracheal suctioning pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35904123/

With the increasing availability of disposable fiberoptic devices that integrate with current video laryngoscope monitors, nasopharyngoscopy is becoming a must-have skill in 2025. theprotectedairway.com/nasopharyngosc…

What a way to close out 2024. A huge effort by the group putting this one together!! #BradCliff #LongCovid journals.lww.com/cptj/fulltext/…

Coming from Australia, Mitch Taylor talking about all things COPD, including spirometry and lung function, and of course #Pulmonaryrehabilitation, linking the #COPDBatonPass event to @GOLD_COPD Wolrd COPD Day theme 🫁 @russwinn66 @AlanLHamilton

Check out Russell and the world COPD day big batton pass!! Inspiring stuff linkedin.com/video/live/urn…

@georgentou1 @NiaALuxton @AnneBrekka @TiinaAndersen I will likely take you up on that offer @georgentou1 !

@functionallungs @NiaALuxton @AnneBrekka @TiinaAndersen Anytime you would like to practice or discuss let me know

So pleased to see this work published - spent an amazing time in the research lab in Norway with this work led by @AnneBrekka and @TiinaAndersen Great to see physiotherapists using laryngeal ultrasound to assist with clinical decision making... pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39472069/

🎉 NEW COURSE 🎉 Introducing our brand new "Cardiorespiratory Core" 🫁 Run by Titled Cardiorespiratory Physiotherapist Mitchell Taylor our Cardiorespiratory Core delves into essential respiratory physiology and pathology including COPD, Asthma, Bronchiectasis and ILD.

Wow and fantastic physiological study

If you are interested in the physiology of airway clearance, don't miss it! A review of the influence of estrogens on ASL in CF and asthma; Will it be the same in #bronchiectasis? Do we have to adapt airway clearance strategies to the menstrual cycle?bsd.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11…

@Beika_Physio I have a young patient with severe bronchiectasis whose lungs have been fantastic whilst breastfeeding during 3 pregnancies. As soon as she stopped feeding the exacerbations resume. Now I understand why. The big question is could this be used as a therapeutic

@RespPT_rhys @NTMNetworkUK @TheACPRC Interested

Any physiotherapists interested in joining the network please contact @NTMNetworkUK. We have 50 physiotherapists registered for today's event a great turn out. @TheACPRC

Great to see the results of this trial coming out! A win for bronchiectasis. Big thanks to all the patients who participated at our site and all over the world.

@PeterWark1710 Treatment burden with airway clearance is also a significant issue, with regression away from techniques common. Consistent messaging but flexibility in regimes is pivotal.

No better in Australia. Only around a half of patients with bronchiectasis in Europe perform regular airway clearance. Techniques and use of airway clearance management is heterogeneous, suggesting the need for clearer guidelines and stronger evidence. bit.ly/3v2CFGy

@HLewthwaite @traitsCRE @nessmcd @UrrozPaola @nessiewil @PeterThorSoc @AnneVertigan @DyspneaSociety Amazing study! Were expiratory CTs performed. I wonder if BMI may correlate with bronchomalacia in this cohort? I feel I am seeing this as an untreated trait more often in the "high BMI, OSA, high historic OCS use" cohort.

1st paper from understanding breathlessness in asthma (UBA) study looking at burden & psychophysiological correlates>53% (optimally treated) severe asthma have limiting breathlessness assoc w ACQ, BMI, 6MWD, Nijmegen (treatable traits) jaci-inpractice.org/article/S2213-… @traitsCRE @nessmcd

Amazing stuff

Resp physios for the win @TSANZ24

@nessmcd 🤓

And we are off! Official opening of the #tsanzsrs2024! It’s going to be a great meeting!
