“Children with… open fractures, partial amputations, open chest wounds, horrendous lacerations… and burns. And that was every day.” Dr Deborah Harrington recently spent 2 weeks in a Gaza hospital. “I feel ashamed and shocked that we’re doing this to fellow humans,” she told me.

@S__Baksh There should also be Krebs cycle electives as well. Why isn’t this offered?

@edouardcoupetjr I’ve been know to throw in some warm blankets too. I always tell my patients that there are only certain things in this world I can control — these simple things; warm blankets, juice, sandwiches— those I can control.

@saltywidowrn But it makes it easier for ECMO cannulation

@j_momoflittles Not at all! The bedside drama has people running for the hills these days in the ICU. It’s a little sad when you can call it from the onset of meeting some of these new nurses. And for the record that nurse has made an amazing CRNA!

[Chris @EMPAchris]
