As we naturally compare specialties in the JAMA graph, it's important to also look what happens when you draw the axes out fully ⤵️
The overall burnout is the problem.

Obstructive sleep apnoea is a risk factor for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. There is a need for innovative research strategies evaluating the positive prognostic effects of CPAP. Hypoxic burden may guide individualised therapeutic approaches. https://t.co/0wvOH51hZT
What an honor to have Dr. Robert Brown, a leader and legend in our division, share his reflections on his career for Grand Rounds. Dr. Brown shared many stories and lessons and left us with a final challenge: to keep MGH a great community with providers who feel part of a team.
We are absolutely delighted to welcome this amazing class of new fellows to the MGH/BIDMC Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine Fellowship in July 2024!

We have an open #sleepmedicine#fellowship slot at our clinically-focused #sleepfellowship training program. 1 hour from Boston, 40 min from Providence RI. Rotations in neuro, pulm, and peds. 6 bed lab with high volumes of in lab studies! DM me if interested. #fellowshipmatch
Do critically ill patients with #COVID19 benefit from using #simvastatin? An insightful new REMAP-CAP publication takes us a big step closer to finding out.
📖 Read a comprehensive overview in this thread 👇
@dfmcauley@agordonICU@NEJM
Really enjoyed discussing this recent @NEJM publication from @dfmcauley and colleagues as part of the ambitious @remap_cap platform. Great example of the utilization of response adaptive randomization and Bayesian modeling during a global pandemic!
Great Journal Club presentations by F2 @sirusjj & F1 @TomQuinnMD! Dr. Jesudasen discussed whether amikacin could reduce the incidence of ventilator-associated pneumonia (yes, with caveats). Dr. Quinn discussed the REMAP-CAP simvastatin study in critically ill COVID-19 patients.
It was great interviewing @TiffanyG_MD for the ATS WEAR blog on her PoCUS QI project. This QI project is exemplary on how to increase resident engagement in PoCUS. Check out our blog https://t.co/AnD8LbMvzx

6 RCTs presented during @ESICM#LIVES2023 in the last 2 hours you can’t miss if you work with critically ill patients:
#1 Simvastatin in critically ill COVID pts
#2 Vit C in COVID pts
#3 Landiolol in septic shock
#4 Amikacin to prevent VAP
#5 Convalescent plasma in COVID ARDS
#6 Sigh ventilation in trauma
All concomitantly published in @NEJM and @JAMA_current

Croup can be a scary thing for new parents to watch their babies struggle with, so Dr. Kelly Quinn @KellyCakertMd, a fellow in Pulmonary Medicine at Boston Children's Hospital, wrote a primer on what croup is and how to best treat it. 👇 @HealthDayTweets https://t.co/S766JUbzXl

Great Grand Rounds case by F1 @TiffanyG_MD! The patient presented with subacute cough, progressive shortness of breath, and previously lived in a country with high tuberculosis prevalence. Dr. Gardner discussed the challenges that eventually led to a diagnosis of pleural TB.

@laxswamy These are great principles and really useful to distinguish ICU decision-making from the floors! Will be stealing these for residents new to the ICU
1/ Our NEW @CircAHA study, simultaneously published with #ESCCongress
🚨 We develop and validate the NEW #DOAC Score
➡️ A bleeding risk score for patients with #afib on DOACs
✅ We find our DOAC Score outperforms prior risk scores, including the HAS-BLED
