“These days he often felt deep admiration for other people’s work. He found he respected technique, art, even the ability to do a simple task well, particularly if it was a skill he himself had not mastered.” #musashi

@HumanFact0rz When there is an acceptable miss rate and docs don’t lose their livelihoods for “delay in diagnosis” then CT rates will go down.

Hey @ACEPNow I received this email offering to sell me all of the contact info from attendees at your conference. Hopefully this is a scam and not another way you make money off of the backs of us. (You can see the email address if you click on it)

@BenZabar @EMdocinabox @benabo Sorry bro, can’t say. I’ve largely deprioritized social media presence so won’t setup a new account anywhere without a real compelling reason.

[Preston Fedor @OperationalEMS]

@FLTDOC1 I’ve been going through the whole thing (again) on Hulu. It just doesn’t age.

@FLTDOC1 “Pithing” someone’s c-spine is a theoretical problem. A bad trauma dying of airway obstruction / failure is not.

@Buck_Reed The weird thing is that the @EaglesGather just rotate giving each other awards every year… named for themselves

@Aidan_Baron It’s not cool but it’s my most important and satisfying job

[Preston Fedor @OperationalEMS]

@padraic90 @Aidan_Baron @gthipps Not denying any evidence. But this is real life and students should prepare for reality, not the future of dreams.

Fight for better yes, but prepare for tomorrow.

[Preston Fedor @OperationalEMS]

@jzaraterod @Aidan_Baron @gthipps Yes I caught the very dreamy idealistic aspiration. My point is that they exist and people work them in high stakes environments. So students should prepare early and often.

[Preston Fedor @OperationalEMS]

@Aidan_Baron @gthipps Med students take themselves over seriously, but the stakes and consequences are so low. When you’re a solo resident in the ICU is not the time to experience this for the first time.

[Preston Fedor @OperationalEMS]

@Aidan_Baron @gthipps Firefighters. Many EDs in rural areas (some cover 72 hours at a time). Military special operations.

Med school is the best time to be exposed to these rigors, to learn how to function better when tired, and to recognize one’s own signs of fatigue.

[Preston Fedor @OperationalEMS]

@AstroPeggy You rocked it. The crew and whole Axiom team were fortunate to have you as the Commander.

@MDtheDO Study to support the patent expiring soon… neuro is gonna neuro regardless of the data
