Watch this amazing video showing hemopericardium on autopsy. You can see where the myocardial wall was injured, causing blood to leak into the pericardial space. As that blood clotted, it smothered the heart. This is exactly how Hemorrhagic Tamponade kills!https://t.co/7NEpV3j9cf

Watch this amazing GIF showing how a jaw thrust opens up the larynx. This is why basic airway maneuvers save lives!

In November 2016, we launched our New Clinical Response Model. The aim was to save more lives and improve patient outcomes. Today, we've had extremely positive evaluation results - among them, a 43% increase in survival for our most critical patients. https://t.co/eUgJ7b87K3

Really good visualisation of atherosclerotic plaque formulation leading to rupture, clotting cascade & platelet aggregation, resulting in total thrombus occlusion of a coronary artery.

Great to see nurse and paramedics in this new role and to be working with you all

[AirwayMan @JohnCSakles]

A bougie is not an appropriate rescue adjunct for a Grade 4 airway. You have to see or at least know where the glottic inlet is to reasonably expect that a bougie will successfully enter the trachea.

Just been to see a chap, volunteered 2 be a simulated patient, during student Osce examination👏 was diagnosed with a heart murmur he did not know he had, subsequently has now had his heart valve replaced! ❤️ @MScAdvPractGCU @gcutoday @GCUNursing #altruismpaysoff @carlos_orenes

When a health professional flags up a problem, it is called an incident report. When a patient does the same, it is called a complaint. How language affects safety culture: https://t.co/pahWYuBHHT #patientexperience @patientlibrary
