@DougKass It’s gotta go down, but when? What will make or turn? Every month a new piece comes out revealing hollow base, and it still goes up. How do u time it?
It's time for another #EASTMemberChat! This month, we're partnering with the EAST Burn Surgery Committee to ask, “Post-Pig World: What are you using to replace xenograft? Share your thoughts on coverage materials used as (or in lieu of) substitute skin graft."
@BurnJournalClub @AmaliaCochranMD @Ameriburn@abrnurse@yukusmingus @AngGibson01 @MdColleen @callie_mt Ditto to CMR's comments. Also, I would say follow up. PTSD, wound deterioration, scaring complications... these are things that you can best averted and/or treated by hooking patient into mature burn system.
@DissanaikeMD While I whole-heartedly agree with the last sentence of your tweet, I got a point something out on the first sentence. I assure you, if I went without a haircut for three years, my hair would not end up looking anything like yours. middle age realities can be cruel. 😉
@fourmiracles101 not all docs the same in this. some (icu docs, trauma/acs surgeons, etc) came to work throughout, at significant risk to themselves and their families. others were home safe. budget adjustments after the fact should reflect this
It’s Insane to Keep Using Mortality as a Primary Endpoint in Critical Care Trials via @PulmCrit https://t.co/ohrShFrN6r #FOAMed#FOAMcc
WOW --> In entire history of critical care research, NO med has ever been found by multicenter-RCTs to have a durable mortality benefit
Can someone help connect us with groups of surgeons who do trauma telemedicine?
We’ve heard there’s a group in Canada & one in Brazil. Anyone know members of these groups? Are there other surgeons elsewhere who use telemedicine for trauma management across the globe?
