Thank you to the @FlightBridgeED team for the opportunity to speak at #FAST24 today! An amazing conference packed with top-notch speakers and cutting-edge topics!
Looking forward to #FAST25!
Thanks, Jacob, for an excellent and educational talk this morning! The right ventricle has unique challenges that must be considered in patients with RV pathology; what's right for the left might be wrong for the right! #FAST24#FlightBridgeED

We know that in medical cardiac arrest, chest compressions are the cornerstone of care b/c the pump is failing. In traumatic arrest, the problem is most likely hemorrhage or obstruction. Compressions wonโt fix those! -Dr. Zaffer Qasim #FAST24
THIS is a great message from @REsusurrus - while we might get in to the business to save lives, more importantly, what we more commonly do is relieve suffering, enhance dignity, and provide comfort & warmth to our patients. Never forget that. #FAST24@FlightBridgeED
Relentlessly pursue excellence. Seek out opportunities to improve every case, every patient encounter. Seek out new knowledge & skills. Push yourself to grow every day as a clinician- @REsusurrus#FAST24
Premeditatio malorum: (a good) premeditation with failure; Seek not to simply succeed, but to predict and avoid failure. @REsusurrus@FlightBridgeED#FAST24

Consider ACS, Aortic Synd, Heart Failure in DDx, although mom may look otherwise "young & healthy," and CV sx may be attributed to "normal pregnancy sx"

US maternal death rate higher than gun violence or traffic accidents!
Anat/phys changes can last up to 1 YEAR post-partum; 65% of maternal deaths are post-partum.
Ask: "Are you pregnant now or have you been in past 12 months?"

.@michaelsharmapa on ECGs:
In addition to Sgarbossa's criteria for LBBB (and other #OMI equivalents), don't sleep on concordant STE in RBBB either!
@AAENP2#EmergNP24
Anaphylaxis, at @AAENP2#EmergNP24 conference:
* 2 or more systems (derm, CV, resp, GI) after known or suspected allergen exposure = anaphylaxis
*More deaths in males & adults
* Maybe anaphylaxis? Not sure?
