@pulmtoilet @PulmCrit If only there were some way to noninvasively assist their breathing. Oh well. Maybe someday

@marklewismd What the hell are you doing here?

[Thomas Bice, MD, MSc @CritCareMD]

@sakabdulaziz @hashamsarwar @emily_fri That is not an indication all on its own, no. The Surviving Sepsis Campaign has different recommendations for SUP than other groups. But they don’t include everyone

@iamjasonlevin @Uber When police sympathizers ask “who are you going to call when you need help” and this is how the police react to attempted kidnapping…

@emily_fri @pulmtoilet @rynoFbabyCRNP That explains the lack of mechanical complications! Especially for femoral!!! BMI in the 20’s. That’s adorable.

[Thomas Bice, MD, MSc @CritCareMD]

@emily_fri @pulmtoilet @rynoFbabyCRNP This makes so much more sense to me now. And it explains so much… 🤦🏻‍♂️ is definitely the appropriate response

[Thomas Bice, MD, MSc @CritCareMD]

@emily_fri @rynoFbabyCRNP All right, hadn’t seen that one, but I’ll take it. Because I agree with your point about unnecessary work. I think a lot of medicine makes unnecessary work

[Thomas Bice, MD, MSc @CritCareMD]

@rynoFbabyCRNP @emily_fri Yes. It has been 10 years since then, but still, it had been a while since that practice was recommended…

[Thomas Bice, MD, MSc @CritCareMD]

@rynoFbabyCRNP @emily_fri Yeah, femoral does have a higher infection risk. But it’s not so much higher that the risk of changing it is beneficial. My rotation in the burn unit when I was a fellow they were still doing routine changes over a wire every 3 days and new site every 6 or 9 or something

@Footy_Headlines @MikeKeegan_DM Not in the US they don’t. NBC/Peacock does which is a direct competitor to Paramount+

@DuchessSexpert Was this the expiration of the prior challenge?

[Mike L. Goodman @TheM_L_G]

USMNT fans who can’t enjoy this team which has more or less won everything in Concacaf, made the round of 16 at the World Cup and quite clearly have fun playing together should probably just get another hobby.

[Thomas Bice, MD, MSc @CritCareMD]

@CarolinaToffees It’s actually the perfect lineup with the available guys, right?!?!

[Thomas Bice, MD, MSc @CritCareMD]

@DuchessSexpert @ChaosandCaths How dare they

[Thomas Bice, MD, MSc @CritCareMD]

I could not be more excited about this lineup! #USMNT #USAvMEX #CNL #Concacaf

@elias_pratt Absence of evidence is not the same as evidence of absence of effect. Just because not enough people have studied it doesn’t mean it doesn’t work. 3% hasn’t been studied much outside of CF. But saying it has no utility outside CF is just wrong

[Thomas Bice, MD, MSc @CritCareMD]

@DuchessSexpert @ChaosandCaths They’re all 6 yo now. But I know where almost all of them are!

@DuchessSexpert @ChaosandCaths This dog was a result of a foster failure on our part. Puppy mill mama was surrendered thinking she hadn’t taken (because people are ass holes) so we whelped the litter for the foster. 8 beautiful chocolate puppies…
