Hearing about ARROW study

Using OM-85 (https://t.co/00jalxHMnM) to reduce recurrent pre-school wheeze

Needs >2000 participants; previously infeasible without huge grants but now with research networks a reasonable (if not tough) venture.

Doing a #POCUS workshop with my #medschool class tomorrow. Wonder if I still got it?

@TayBurkholder I just about lost it at the 2-phone admission method. I may have to use that 😂

@DrDevSK Miss everyone back home! Say hi to the team for me 🙂

Care package from Canada. Anyone want to send me some all dressed seasoning next? #IYKYK

New ocular #POCUS study in WestJEM confirms what I've always thought
Specificity is better with lower gain, whereas sensitivity improves with higher gain

Myth 3
Amoxicillin cannot be used for tonsillitis, as it causes a rash with EBV

Rash reaction almost certainly to AMPicillin, but probably not AMOXicillin. Go ahead, use it for tonsillitis (or better yet, use nothing at all!)

Hey! Pediatrician here…

Children aren’t supposed to get shot.

Anywhere… any time… at any age.

[Jordan Levinter @JLevinter]

@Sthanu5 Nice! I was thinking perichondritis with the ear lobe sparing.

[Wendy Hasson MD @WendyHassonMD]

My sweet pea received 5 #vaccines at her pediatrician today! People worry about the number of shots, but did you know we're exposed to thousands of antigens every day? Vaccines are a tiny drop in a big bucket with the added bonus of protecting our littles against serious illness.

[Jordan Levinter @JLevinter]

I give flu shots if the patient is febrile. Call me a rebel.

[Tori Arsenault, PharmD ✨🚑🫀❣️ @rxtoriarsenault]

⚠️ so many reasons not to do this
anticholinergic toxicity is NO joke!

@elanahoch He's living his best life with the in-laws and their dog.

[Jordan Levinter @JLevinter]

Finally reunited with my cat after moving across the planet. Definitely feeling more like home now 🇨🇦✈️🇦🇺

[Jordan Levinter @JLevinter]

@elanahoch The doggie stayed in Canada. The flight would have broken his fragile little soul.
