Up in Glasgow this week for the #RCEMasc @RCollEM, come and check out my stall while you're here and learn more about cold water immersion, rescue technique and communicating with the drowning patient... here's my work for anyone that can't make it!

[Dr Raymond Effah @WayoftheRay]

Imagine being told you have 3 weeks before starting your new job to find a place to live - in a city or town you've never been to before.
It's unreasonable.
It's unacceptable.
It's unfair.

Dissertation with this tagline coming soon - watch this space !!

More claims being made for cold water immersion on local radio. Note, the definitive science hasn't been done, the evidence is anecdotal and it is potentially dangerous. By all means do it, but understand the risks & benefits & proceed with caution. https://t.co/EFjLPfALrx

Chemical Restraint of the Agitated Patient

It's one of the most dangerous things we do, for patients and for providers.

Here's how to avoid the major pitfalls...

A thread... 🧵

Is #ColdWaterImmersion beneficial or dangerous? For informed answers, I spoke with the great @ProfMikeTipton for the first episode of the new season of the podcast. Tune in here: https://t.co/m0bQQs4cHI or here: https://t.co/JKDjwBijjq Thanks again, Mike!

[Dr Rachel Clarke @doctor_oxford]

Mind-boggling advice from NICE - to use injections of sterile water for pain relief for labouring women.

One of the studies cited seriously has sterile water as its active arm &, er, salty water as placebo😳 (ref below).

*When* will my profession take women's pain seriously?

[Sarah Morton 💙 @drsarahmorton]

A lot of hard work by @sophhmacdonald on an analysis of the access to PHEM critical care across the UK - since the last review in 2012 there still remains geographical and diurnal variation #PHEM #HEMS

[Matt @themattmak]

Some excellent outputs from @QMUL @IofPHC @PHMBSc dissertations at @RCEMevents Annual Scientific Conference - phenomenal work and engaging posters that disseminate key information #PHEM #RCEMasc

[Barts Prehospital Medicine BSc @PHMBSc]

As the 10th cohort of @PHMBSc start their Applied Sciences module, some of our 9th cohort have been presenting posters on their dissertations at #RCEMasc in Glasgow - great work Sophie, Jonny and Leo! Huge thanks to all @IofPHC and @PHMBSc for making this possible

What a fascinating study and do we need to change what teach the public? @SaviourMedical

This led to a conversation about the fascinating @SkiedConference with @suzythain

[Michael FitzPatrick @DoctorFitz]

I did a medical degree in 3 years 7 months.

Here's why I think 4 year medical degrees as standard is a truly AWFUL idea.
