@lucey_mark@PulmCrit@BenjaminBier That rationale is why it is/was used but not supported by any evidence. Albumin in bottle does not = patients own albumin
@MichaelRosenYes Covid tried pretty hard to kill you first time round Michael, pretty straightforward you taking sensible steps to avoid giving it another go ๐ Hope you are keeping well ๐ค
Dr Chris van Tulleken:
โWeโve not all got greedier & lazier over the last 30 years. Instead there has been a total failure to regulate the food companies who shape our food environment.โ
#BBCLauraK: โIs it really for govโฆto tell what companies can put in [food]?โ
Dr C: โArgh!โ
Causeway coast is an amazing place to be. The Causeway Anaesthesia Theatre & Critical Care Service has passionate & committed team with enormous potential. If you are a generalist looking for a rewarding role have a look

@Chronotrope@SIVATrainees I have that book and loved it! ๐ฅฐ Different cover though. Much preferred to โWestโ as junior trainee (apols if deemed heretical ๐ฌ)
@DrLKVaughan But the conversion rate is 50-70% - that seems crazy, how come? Would guess similar % for pts going through resus in an nhs ed but way less for general attenders, even if excluding those considered โinnapropriateโ by some. Why the big difference?
@emily_fri Yeah, i mostly do it expecting it to cofirm my plan for negative or neutral target balance, not to give fluid, hypovolaemia usually obvious (to experienced clinician) but NOT doing something is harder than doing something (ie give fluid) when confronted with a sick patient
@DrJSherrington Iโm team shirt (ss, no tie) & trousers where possible. In Anaesthesia often scrubs only option. Iโm sympathetic to team scrubs, but they must be available, match and be in serviceable condition, main reason why i bought my own . Also donโt steal from other areas ๐๐
@gasbagheera@critconcepts Yup ๐ Weโve just taken custody of a x-vant stimpod for this indication. Why not ensure you wait long enough but not longer than necesary when tech is available. Also helpful for next steps of intra-interhospital transfer
@StephenNolan Auch bollocks! Doug gave me a bit of hope for this place ๐ค Fairly liberal & pragmatic unionist but with enough conservative credibilty to keep some from that side on board - Need to maintain an option between Alliance & the DUP or chaos reigns, with or without a โNew Irelandโ
@pritanand@Wilkinsonjonny How come? If using mg iโm almost always giving some ket(0.5/kg + 10-20mg top-ups for long case) as well. I know both have nmda antagonism but clinical effects quite different.
