Great food, better wine: surfing, squash, running & cycling - to balance. Views my own.

Dr Sneha Varkey started as a Consultant Intensivist at @TheRMH this week. Congratulations and welcome to the RMH ICU team! @SAVarkey

[Paul Young @DogICUma]

By week's end, the @MegaROXtrial will pass 6000 recruited patients. I think we will hit 1000 patients recruited per month in early 2023. A truly global collaborative effort to understand how best to apply a ubiquitous treatment to the critically ill. Thanks to everyone helping.

Todays #ICUOnePager: chest tube drains

What is that bubbling box next to the bed? What do the different compartments do? How to assess if it's working properly?

Hear from frontline healthcare workers about simple things you can do to take ownership of your health and keep our services for the people who need them most.

Amazing effort from @CICMANZ staff in successfully running more than 1200 vivas over ZOOM in the last fortnight. Thanks to all the candidates and examiners who participated, and good luck for the hot cases next week!

[David Antognini @DAntognini]

This is a unit to be proud of. Hat off to you all and your administrators who didn’t hold it up. Credit where credit is due.

[Alex Psirides @psirides]

Thank you to the amazing hospital engineers who in just a few days have converted our new 6-bed @wellingtonicu extension into a large negative pressure room. And also built two new air locks where corridors used to be.

The Italian airforce gives a big emotional lift to their nation with Pavarotti singing Nessun Dorma (let no one sleep)and where lyrics say venceremos(we will overcome)they have their planes dramatically facing and overpowering the single plane (virus) with their National Flag!

If you’re wondering whether it’s an overreaction to cancel large gatherings and public events (and I love basketball), here’s a useful primer as to why these measures can slow the spread of the virus and save lives. We have to look out for each other. https://t.co/Ld7Uc8sPTQ

#covid19FOAM #coronavirus updates from the CCM-L list. Troubling reports from Italy, as this sounds like a rather sicker population than described in other settings. Note the high prevalence of shock and fairly young age bracket. (shared with permission)

Amazing 👌🏼

If you haven’t seen this before, type in your best guess. Wait for it - it will be worth your while!! 😅

When do you give up or persevere? 🤷🏼‍♂️😳😟
More painful for us or for them?....

[David Antognini @DAntognini]

@DrRgoldi Who STILL wonders about why there is a recruitment crisis....evidence for that at least is significant and external validity is through the roof!

[David Antognini @DAntognini]

Looks so simple but takes so much work - not to organise but to get people on board other than the very few who are keen to promote! Jealous you work in such an enthusiastic dept!

[Paul Young @DogICUma]

Thanks to @KateTietjens (& with design by @psirides) check out the @WellingtonICU teaching programme. If there's a better one in the world, I'd like to see it.

Ever been told not to bother looking for the jugular venous pulse? Or that the a-x-v-y waveform only exists on a white board and is not appreciable in real life? Don't believe everything you hear, especially in medicine. https://t.co/iIbvd57mwf #PhysicalExam
