The ACT trial results are out. TNK is not inferior to rtPA at achieving excellent functional outcomes without significant safety issues. #ESOC2022 @SVINJournal @StrokeAHA_ASA

Great article by @moore_oliver in @globeandmail. Digital care with phone calls and any virtual care platform has landed in Ontario thanks to @OntariosDoctors and @celliottability @fordnation. Stay safe and minimize patient visits to office if appropriate

@bsidhu28 @DrGDigby lot of crucial aspects missing from this bulletin. it leaves the option to use any platform that you want. I am not able to spin my head around k083 code. any thoughts on how to use k083?

Evidence-informed COVID19 response is much we already know — need action:

1) scaling up sick leave policy for all
2) mitigating community exposure
3) enhancing social safety net(housing)
4)virtual care for patients/providers
5) expanding testing/capacity

[Dr. Duncan Rozario @duncanrozario]

If Kaiser Permanente can have over 50% of its 110 million patient interactions virtually in 2017, we should be able to do better than the 1% of care that happens virtually in Ontario. Let's start the #tenpatient challenge! Do at least 10 virtual visits/wk
