🧵1/3 EP is an intimidating🫀field. So I decided to explore by setting up an away rotation with @DrJMarine (amazing experience!). I wanted to make the most of my time and in order to prepare for the steep learning curve, prepared hard for my rotation. I found that like me,
In 1958, this man’s heart kept stopping—20 times a day.
Doctors had no solution.
Then his wife demanded an experimental surgery that had only been tested on dogs.
What happened next changed medicine forever. 🧵

A doctor decided NOT to help a sick passenger on a flight because it was “after several hours of boozing.”
He got crucified on Reddit but I think he made the responsible - and medicolegally prudent - decision.
This is also why I don’t drink on flights.

@KeyurBShahRIC@VCUHealthHeart Hello, Dr. Shah. I’m interested, but cannot DM you. Please feel free to message me your contact information. Thank you for the opportunity!
Dear America,
Happy Thanksgiving. Some pro-tips from the ER:
1. Do not drop a frozen turkey into a deep fryer. It is basically a bomb. Defrost…asap if you haven’t started already.
2. Don’t become carved meat. Avocados are the fingers’ nemesis…followed by mandolines. Use caution.
3. Drinking and driving: don’t ever do it, but be cognizant it may be on roads especially during holidays.
4. If you’re going to talk (ahem, argue) religion/politics/old family drama at the dinner table with your hot-headed distant cousins and crazy uncle…remove any pointy implements first.
5. If you do your once-a-year visit of Nana in the nursing home at Thanksgiving, be aware…it is possible Nana may be different than she was a year ago when you last saw her. This is not usually a reason to take her out of the nursing home, bring her to the ER, and insist we find a new/better nursing home for her. Sad, but true…can’t say how often I see this one at TGiving/Xmas/NY.
Sure my fellow healthcare workers have many more…Happy 🦃🦃🦃 Day!
