🚀 Introducing https://t.co/7wgBzJjd6C — free, interactive interventional pulmonology education that's actually hands-on, not just another question bank.
We built it to teach the skills that are hard to develop outside the procedure suite. The flagship modules: a Bronch Navigation Trainer and a CT-to-Fluoro simulator for spatial reasoning. Alongside them: EBUS training, IP board review, TNM-9 staging, 3D anatomy, and a Creative Commons image repository you're free to use.
Coming soon: Intro to Bronchoscopy, Pleural Disease, and Rigid Bronchoscopy Foundations.
Built for fellows, faculty, and anyone sharpening their procedural skills. Create a free account and start practicing today.

I was drawn to Twitter because of #POCUS and seeing experts’ images and tweetorials. It inspired the question:

⭐️Does using X lead to measurable improvements in #POCUS image interpretation?

We conducted a randomized trial to see, and the results were surprising…

You asked, we answered! We excited for an episode of @CritCareTime all about ventilators basics:
🌬️ goals
🧠 concepts
⚙️ modes/settings

This is mostly a foundation for beginners, but there are some great pearls for experts too. (Like why I still use SIMV sometimes...)

Check out our latest manuscript!

BLUF: PET/CT-positive, EBUS-TBNA-negative patients had worse outcomes in comparison to double-negative patients, suggesting a need for additional therapy or surveillance in that population.

🧂Hyponatremia is a common the ICU, but correcting it smoothly & safely can be challenging.

🧠Rapid correction risks serious complications like ODS/CPM

📈That's why I built NaPathway - a free app - to help clinicians monitor sodium correction

Another standout episode of @CritCareTime with @nickmmark @Askins_Razor Don’t know which I prefer for the show title.

1. Airway Fire
2. It Doesn’t Matter If You Can’t Breathe

[Cyrus Askin, MD, FACP @Askins_Razor]

Beyond grateful for the promotion to Associate Professor at #USUHS! I’ve developed such a love of teaching - both in the lecture hall and at the bedside - it’s nice to be recognized!

Congratulations to @JBosterMD and @AustinBaraki for their promotions as well!

Everyone who cares for people with ARDS needs to listen to this episode about ARDS mimics!

These are diseases that *LOOK* like ARDS but have very different treatment: AEP, DAH, OP, HP, EVALI, PJP, AIP, etc. (If this alphabet 🍜 doesn’t ring a 🛎️ give this episode a listen!)

Had a great time with @Askins_Razor and @nickmmark on @CritCareTime. Tune in to hear about the role of IP in the ICU.

[Cyrus Askin, MD, FACP @Askins_Razor]

🚨🚨This week on @CritCareTime we are joined by Dr. Josh Boster who discussed leveraging interventional pulm skills in the ICU‼️

ABIM is considering a new subspecialty certification in Interventional Pulmonology and is seeking public comment.

This is a major step in the evolution of our field.

Absolutely amazing resource, also recommend!

[Robert Oubre, MD | The Doctor of Documentation @Dr_Oubre]

I discovered Open Evidence during my last week on service and 🤯🤯🤯.

You can ask it questions as you do with ChatGPT, but it produces evidence-based answers with links to the articles & guidelines.

It's amazing and strangely addicting. Thank you, Mayo Clinic and NEJM!

If you're a physician and not using it, check it out! https://t.co/xqr4AdoDYZ

Super excited to share this weeks episode of @CritCareTime all about ECMO.

@Askins_Razor & I talk to two expert ECMOlogists about VV & VA ECMO.

With FluA raging, give it a listen!

Why in 2025 are people still obsessed with RADIAL art lines?

The ULNAR artery is usual bigger & farther from the nerve.

Yes, the RADIAL is more superficial & easier to landmark but with POCUS it doesn’t matter!

Is the RADIAL preference just a holdover from the pre-POCUS times?
