This speaks to the hyperspecialization of medicine. I went to a residency program that prioritized training “general” ophthalmologists. The goal was to make you competent practicing right out the gate. If you wanted to do a fellowship, great, but it was not the expectation. Society needs 100x more “general”physicians than physicians who specialize in cone photoreceptors. This should be the goal for EVERY residency.
The POISE-3 trial substudy including 3260 general surgery patients showed that prophylactic IV TXA can reduce the risk of perioperative bleeding without increasing thromboembolic risk in general surgery procedures. https://t.co/g9l2G0rszi

Influence of a surgeon’s exposure to operating room turnover delays on patient outcomes
➡️https://t.co/Y0WLcHT3SZ
In this prospective study, a 3.3% (95% c.i. 0.6% to 5.6%) increase in the rate of major adverse events was observed when a surgeon experienced a delay in operating room scheduling or waiting time between two procedures exceeding 1 h. Optimizing operating room turnover to prevent delayed operations and waiting time is critical for patient safety.
