A crucial element of the management of patients with acute upper GI bleeds is deciding which hospital site they need to be treated at, a factor research often overlooks.

CCT day today - grateful to everyone who has supervised and guided me from GI and gen med in South-East Scotland, and at St Mark’s Hospital. There were plenty of bleeders, a little sweat and almost no tears.
BSG gastroduodenal session at #BSGLIVE24 this morning - 9am, hall 10B. I’ll be presenting an unusual case of gastritis, plus there’s plenty of real-world expert advice on gastritis.

As a medical 👩🎓 I had 3 jobs to make ends meet. 📚 📓were out of my reach. I was gifted the MEDICINE journal which kept me up to date. ⏩ many years, an amazing privilege to be able to contribute with talented colleagues 🙌🏽@hanwal9@Bealoquebea Free🔗https://t.co/oAwSWqGZ1X
@PaulAshYoung 2019-2020 a.k.a. the one with all the covid re-writes. No pay, no time in lieu, couldn’t even pick the best clinics. At the end of the year my ES wrote on my form “hasn’t done any form of management this year”.
@on_lothianbuses every weekday morning the 38s to RIE getting to Morningside between 8 and 8:30 are full. Passengers turned away. They also either don’t turn up or are very, very late (todays 8:05 was actually at 8:21). Any chance of a double decker and a reliable timetable?
@on_lothianbuses Given passengers are being turned away daily, can there be an additional bus? It goes past kings buildings and then on to RIE so a very heavily used route at peak times.
@MStott88 @stevenbollipo@drkeithsiau I appreciate the royal colleges aren’t strictly bound by national borders but a policy by an English college is not necessarily taken up in Scotland.
@MStott88 @stevenbollipo@drkeithsiau There’s an explanatory booklet sent out, and it’s good practice (should be compulsory really) to check if patient has questions when they arrive in the room. Benefits are cutting time between procedures. Obviously it can have problems.
@stevenbollipo@drkeithsiau It needs to be said, but what is said has to be accurate. We have postal consent in 🏴 and the nurses confirm on arrival - I’ve had lots of patients think I’m a med student/v. junior trainee and refuse. If explained by cons that I’m a senior reg patients are happy for me to do it
