Apparently I have appeared on Facebook adverts for a non-invasive glucometer. This is not me! Also, I am not the Dr Martin Whyte (paediatrician). Have to love the internet...

Could continuous subcutaneous glucose sensors (CGMS) be repurposed to diagnose diabetes in equivocal or challenging cases? Commentary with @DrAdrianHeald https://t.co/yEk9UaDmbw

Very enjoyable discussion today with @rdhearing and Phil Dobbie on @CurveThewhy ... Ozempic Nation? How does GLP-1 Rx fit in with public health weight loss initiatives?https://t.co/c4GN29Nor9

@Doc_HLE A very thoughtful article @Doc_HLE . Well done

[Hugh Logan Ellis @Doc_HLE]

'Doctor, I'm worried about this patient's observations.' We find them bolt upright, gripping the rails, wheezing with each gasp. RR & BP up, sats down. Classic APO - we got here just in time. Yet an AI for detecting deterioration might have missed this. Our paper explains why...

@Doc_HLE @endocrinemed @jthteo mohammad al-agil and Claire Sharpe. We found that discontinuation of RAASi in-hospital was associated with 37% worse survival probability. @DiabetesKings

Congratulations @GiahZaidani for winning the 2024 Harvey best poster prize @RoySocMed Cardiovascular Symposium @lifecourse_KCL 👏🙌🥳@BajkaBalazs

[Martin B Whyte @mbwhyte1]

Very good summary of the current crisis with MAPs
@NewStatesman @pwhitakerwriter I would add that moving to medical subspecialisation, away from the generalist, inevitably leads to funders questioning the need for comprehensive, general medical educ.

Today we launch legal action against
@gmcuk over its decision to apply good medical practice equally to PAs & AAs, & the use of “medical professionals” to describe these professions
PAs/AAs are not doctors – blurring the lines can have tragic consequences https://t.co/OtsO5y7yfm

[Dr Sandeep Bansal @iDrSunny]

200,000 doctors are going to be protecting the public by suing the GMC

The GMC is the regulatory body that is meant to uphold standards in medicine to deliver the best outcomes for patients.

Doctors feel the GMC have let patients come to harm and are ever increasing that harm

Huge News!!
