The annual UNC Cardiology Faculty-Fellows basketball game lived up to all its hype! The faculty has decided not to publicize the final result. No need to bruise those youngsters' egos. The MVP earned an extra week of CICU nights! @UNC_SOM@UNCDeptMedicine@UNC_Health_Care
As I embark on #PGY30 , I’m reflecting upon my transition to #Intern year and thinking of the new #Residents starting this week…a short thread 1/

Lots of questions about the Covid-19 vaccines -- here are some of the more common ones, with my answers. Directed at clinicians, but probably something here for all. Any that we missed?

The first #vaccine shipment arrived at the UNC Medical Center in Chapel Hill today! Distribution to other locations is in process & will continue this week. #together#COVID19#covid#OneUNCHealth
#JACCINT#AHA20 research: NRD data shows an increase in proportion of PPM implants during a subsequent hospitalization after discharge among patients who underwent #TAVR between 2012 and 2017, as length of stay for index TAVR trended down. https://t.co/CWaf0KOjpb @MazzellaMD
Excited to share three new ICU #OnePagers on a couple important critical care topics: acid base, arterial lines, and EVDs. Lots of nerdy fun here including Winter's formula, Lundberg waves, and pulsus alternans. Also an updated version of the ARDS OnePager. #FOAMed#FOAMcc

My ratio of positive evaluations* of medical students and residents to negative is about 9:1.
*Above average to downright glowing
Nobody told me how to write evaluations of learners. Come along while I discuss what I have learned. 1/
All my papers are late. All my emails go unanswered until a second poke, except a tiny random sample that I answer within one hot second. All birthday wishes are belated. My grants go in late or not at all. Workouts have gone out the window. So have quotas on chocolate.
Just like many things these days, a student's search for the right residency looks a little different. Since they can't come to visit UNC, we're bringing a little bit of UNC to them. Take a look! #medicalresidency#graduatemedicaleducation#students

@AnnKumfer False negatives or skewed lab results (namely thyroid studies and troponin) in someone taking biotin! 🙋♂️been burned by this recently and it was on my mind https://t.co/sCADMvYD2o
Today, I met the people who saved my life.
I’ve been tweeting about my cardiac arrest since I woke up in the ICU and re-downloaded twitter (@LGlaucomflecken deleted it for my own safety and concluded that if I could figure out how to get it back, I was safe to tweet again)
