More evidence that #gabapentin can be risky postoperatively in older adults, especially as it relates to #delirium. See this recent study in @JAMAInternalMed. #anesthesia https://t.co/MdBhJMIRJm
Speaking up is imperative for #patientsafety. Check out this collaboration from the @ASALifeline Committee on Patient Safety and Education about some of the barriers to speaking up and how to overcome them.

@UofU_Anesthesia Dr. Candace Chang organized a popular panel at #ANES22 focused on #NORA. It��s a challenging #anesthesia environment. Leaders like Dr. Chang are elevating this practice.
This was a particularly gleeful table at the @UofU_Anesthesia reunion last night in connection with the @ANES22. Great to see current faculty, residents and alums in NOLA! Go @uofutah!
Dr. Somya Mishra of @UofU_Anesthesia contributed to a @ANES22 panel on the #environmental impact of inhalational anesthetics. It’s time to go #green with #TIVA. Well done Somya!

@ShikhaJainMD When I was a resident, a fellow tried to kiss me when I was going into my call room in the middle of the night. He knew I am married. There was nobody else around and I don’t think our call rooms had great locks. I didn’t report him but I refused to take call with him ever again.
This #InternationalWomenAndGirlsInScienceDay let’s both celebrate women’s scientific achievements & actively enable the next generation to take up positions of leadership & influence 👩🔬👩🔬👩🔬
