My focus for 2020 is 'The Just Culture Project'. Seeking a shared understanding of what #JustCulture is, what it isn't & why it matters (especially in healthcare). Plan to start with photo-essays exploring the impact of avoidable harm experienced by patients, families & staff.

This is why I think anaesthetists often have such an interest in, and the best understanding of, safety sciences. The wider angle view, combined with the volume and variety of experience. I find that this also often brings genuine humility.
Bryan Glezerson@BryanGlezerson

I think it’s easy to forget that seasoned anaesthesiologists have taken part in many (many) more surgical procedures than any single surgeon. The typical anaesthesiologist is more likely to have seen the perils, pitfalls, and grave complications as a simple function of volume.

13y/o: Our computer science teacher is trying to get us to choose his topic. He told us that 2/3 of jobs will be done by robots in 2030. If anything that just scares me off. And anyway I want to do exactly the opposite of computer science.

What I’ve learnt from the last month of seeing 100s of children with cough/sore/throat and fever etc? As a society we need to do better at normalising minor illness & high temperature. The current comms & messaging isn’t working. When it is ok & when parents should worry #teamGP

@AbbieSBrooks Parents are expected to triage their own children (eg calpol, call GP, 111?) often with v.few tools to help them make those decisions. What is important is that when told “it’s just a virus” etc there is adequate safety-netting, so parents understand what ”worse”looks like.

My 4 year old great-niece is in an induced coma with this right now. Strep A, pneumonia and sepsis. Seemed to start with flu. She’s fighting for her life. Know the symptoms.
Dr. Ron Daniels BEM@SepsisUK

I’m on call tonight. We’re seeing quite a number of prev. healthy people crushingly sick with #sepsis with a Streptococcal pneumonia on a background of ‘flu-like illness or ‘flu itself. PLEASE know the symptoms and if you have one with infection symptoms go STRAIGHT to A&E!!!

Sam loved his red welly boots - we still have them in the porch beside our shoes. I'm glad they are there. #3years8months11days #sepsis

If a parent/carer heed Sue’s words. Nearly always, when sepsis is missed, parents know something’s wrong but can’t describe it. If you’re ONLY worried about the fever, cough or sore throat unlikely something seriously wrong Your child not recovering normally is the red flag.
Sue Morrish@sams_monkey

Sam had flu, contracted an invasive Strep A infection and died of #Sepsis We knew he was unusually unwell, we saw that he wasn't perking up after calpol like he normally would but we'd never heard of #sepsis & didn't know how fast & deadly it was. theguardian.com/healthcare-net…

@Damian_Roland I’ll look at this with Sue once our youngest is asleep. In the meantime, thank you for what you are doing.

I understand anxiety this will cause. But critical parents make decisions they would’ve previously done over mild illness. Fever & sore throat will resolve. If ⬆️ attendances for self limiting illness system will be more unsafe, rather than safer. bbc.co.uk/news/health-63…

@Damian_Roland Thank you. The ‘strep’ messaging in todays news seems confusing to me. Parents can’t do much with it, bar feeling more anxious. Sepsis on the other hand! 12 years after Sam died, I can’t believe it’s still necessary to call for a “Spotting the Sick Child” campaign - but it is!

@morrish_scott I hear you - and am working rapidly on this. I think the Strep message is potentially confusing but will be working hard to provide the resources parents and carers need.

@SepsisUK Mainstream media, yes. And NHS. And government. Protect children, reduce anxiety where it’s not needed (and therefore reduce unnecessary demands on overstretched NHS) and be better able to spot the really sick children that need medical help. Surely it’s a win win situation?

@SepsisUK In which case @BBCNews should be linking to information on sepsis! Call it by its name. Get people informed of the signs and symptoms. It’s not just parents of children at this school who will have children who develop invasive strep this winter.
