Fascinating session on #SCAD by the excellent @SharonneHayes - patient initiated research, importance of clinical suspicion and correct diagnosis especially for our female 🫀 patients - it’s more common than we think! @irishcardiacsoc #ICSSS2021

We hear what we’d like to hear

This explains why, in a challenging resuscitation case, confirmatory feedback is vital

Very easy to deliver the drug dose you want to give rather than were told to give

[ludicrously capacious bag @cherryblack]

This is an incredible admission from a senior doctor about an attempt to end his life many years ago, due to the seemingly insurmountable pressures the job put on him. Even more astonishing is comment number 30 below it. https://t.co/siS2RpC8Ln

[Emma Higgisson @emma_marese]

Asking a patient "What matters to you?" as well as "What is the matter with you?" is integral to delivering quality patient care. This article was a timely reminder of some key learning points from #AELPS18 . #patientengagement #qualitycare

[Institute for Healthcare Improvement (IHI) @TheIHI]

Co-designing care with patients and their families can lead to better patient experience on a more consistent basis: https://t.co/ifnQuP3QoC | #PtExp #AlwaysEvents #HCLDR
