Excited to publish this work with @RAPMOnline No difference in major complications between spinal vs GA in same day total joint arthroplasty. Spinal associated with improved recovery and increased likelihood of same day discharge. @KPDOR @PermanenteDocs @UCSFAnesthesia

#Totaljoint replacement patients had less pain and quicker discharge with #spinal vs general #anesthesia: new research in @RAPMOnline from @EdwardYapMD and @PermanenteDocs @TPMGDocCareers colleagues.

Really honored to have the opportunity to be interviewed by RAPM Focus podcast.

Check out the latest episode. I had the opportunity to speak with a leader in the field @sgmemtsoudis about our research paper featured in print May 2022 @RAPMOnline.

Momentous—FDA independent advisors vote 21 to 0 to recommend the Moderna and Pfizer #COVID19 vaccines for kids 0.5-4 years old — covering at least 19 million young children in the US. CDC meetings Friday/Saturday. CDC approval likely over weekend.

Pfizer-BioNTech shot, like the Moderna one, gets a unanimous vote for authorization for young children at the FDA panel.

Thanks @anesthesianews for the interview and sharing of our study! @RAPMOnline @PermanenteDocs @KPDOR @UCSFAnesthesia

[Anesthesiology News @anesthesianews]

Patients who received spinal anesthesia as opposed to general anesthesia for outpatient hip and knee replacement surgeries reported significantly less pain. https://t.co/gb9sxo8fUv @EdwardYapMD @kpnorcal #surgery #anesthesia

[Moderna @moderna_tx]

We're announcing positive interim data from the Phase 2/3 KidCOVE study of our #COVID19 vaccine (mRNA-1273) in children 6 months to under 2 years and 2 years to under 6 years of age.

This is one of the most confusing times of the pandemic, w/ a firehose of new Omicron data (lots of fab work on #medtwitter putting it into context). In this (long) 🧵, I'll offer my take on how the new information is changing my thinking & behavior.(1/25)

[Ed Yap, MD @EdwardYapMD]

Great work @sidtle and team! @PermanenteDocs will help triage more appropriately to our periop clinics.

[Kaiser Permanente Research NorCal @KPDOR]

New in @AnnalsofSurgery: Sidney Le @sidtle, Vincent Liu, Laura Myers @MDqualitysafety, Bradley Cohn develop #decisionsupport to triage patients to preop consult.

Today, I endorsed ACIP’s recommendation that children 5-11 yrs old should be vaccinated against #COVID19 w/ Pfizer-BioNTech pediatric vaccine. This expands vaccine recommendations to over 28M kids in US & now allows providers to begin vaccinating them. https://t.co/krsXbvsS2p
