@ABsteward @BradSpellberg I agree with @JonathanRyderMD--in the end my thoughts are treat until surgical debridement is complete, but provide adequate abx duration for cellulitis, bacteremia, or other infections. Our study showed 48h after debridement is safe! https://t.co/fyXHE3GZ7v

Pleased to share our report of a hook effect (ie, falsely low readout in setting of high analyte concentration) with use of a common #sarscov2 binding antibody test. This is akin to the prozone effect seen in assays such as the RPR for syphilis. https://t.co/GluQ2o2YAT

Short 🧵regarding the use of 'slip' knots to keep the tissues approximated when they are under tension, so that they stay in the right position when throwing the rest of your knots.

This is a very common technique, and I would say I use 'slip' knots in almost every case.
