Waking patients at a set time during polysomnography can limit sleep and lower the average sleep latency in the Multiple Sleep Latency Test. Patients assessed for hypersomnolence should be allowed to sleep freely during the PSG the night before their MSLT. https://t.co/pQIcw9EvAw

@sirswampthing any thoughts?

Can't think there's been too many years with five teams on 1-5.

@Brainybites @DHughesy Comforting as it is to know I’m not alone, it was still a highly embarrassing episode in my life

@Demonblog @Fel_Cher_ Either way, it was a one-take scenario. No nonsense

.@Demonblog Thought you might enjoy this 1981 letter from the club. #fistedforever has had a long history.

People with narcolepsy struggle to stay awake during the day, even after a full night of sleep. People with untreated narcolepsy often report falling asleep anywhere, sometimes even while they’re working or speaking to people!

Can @NespressoAU help our frontline nurses in Melbourne keeping surgeries running throughout #COVID19Vic with an accessible coffee supply? Bit sad they have to crowd fund their own! @TripleMMelb would love your support to get behind.

[Anna Brain @Brainybites]

@NespressoAU nurses at The Alfred Hospital in Melb are fundraising for a coffee machine - they don’t have time to change surgical scrubs, run downstairs, buy coffee and change again on their break. Bit sad! Could you puhlease help these legends out? (Alfred Centre, lvl 2) 🙏

@drHelenschultz Despite being able to see the patients on our screens, we haven’t developed the skills to interpret the non-visual cues in this context

@drHelenschultz There’s this indescribable thing I learn about my patients as they make their way to my room from the waiting room

@jamesglenday @GreenJ How about one of these?

[Simon Frenkel @Simfrenk]

@7Sport What rubbish. Whose hearts are breaking? He is serving a suspension for breaking the jaw of another player in an off-the-ball incident.
