@shegotlobello Yea I agree, and ETI is an important backup for your SGA but if you’re not trained with that skill, it’s out of the question. Glad you’re getting out there and writing articles, keep it up!
The Lelli test (lever test), definitely our go-to test for ACL rupture.
Left leg normal (negative test); right leg (positive test) complete ACL rupture.

Finally, it is universally acknowledged that no single worthwhile goal can be successfully pursued by a man who is occupied with many tasks... ...because the mind when it's focus is split absorbs little in depth and rejects everything that is jammed into it.

Watch this AMAZING real-time MRI showing what happens to the airway with various anatomical head and neck positions.
This is exactly why basic airway maneuvers save lives!

@TheBlondeRN Phenylephrine is my favorite - quick, easy to mix, nice round dosing, simple mechanism, and the syringe fits nicely in my pocket. But I use Levophed the most in the ED and on flight transports. Epinephrine the most in the prehospital arena with cardiac arrest/anaphylaxis etc.
@emily_fri@CriticalCareNow@tsquaredmd I completely agree with this, but if I'm already looking w/ a mac, I'm probably going to go ahead and try lifting the epiglottis out of the way before I pull my blade out and take the time to switch to a Miller.
@SusannaLHarris ATP synthase creates a transmembrane proton gradient to build ATP for cellular fuel working against the thermodynamic gradient of the cell. If the gradient shifts, ATPase still works in reverse, to hydrolyze ATP to ADP and release energy. Never ceases to blow my mind. @Bdorsey2
@DGlaucomflecken Devils advocate here, but perhaps some of this "superfluous" material is what provides the depth of education for MD/DO's, and thus a deeper understanding of physio/path/pharma? There are other programs w/ less detailed training, if people don't want to spend the time. Thoughts?
