Highlighting the incredible progress @cantonfire1580 @LeoCFD_emsLTOWB and @BostonTrauma @CMTorres_MD have made in furthering prehospital management of trauma in Eastern Massachusetts.

@BradyBGWX Curious if measuring further inland in the city instead of Logan would make a difference

[LITES Network @LITESnetwork]

Proud to share that LITES’s TOWAR results have been published in NEJM! Grateful to collaborate with such talented investigators, sites, and air medical services; incredibly thankful for the patients who participated in the trial. @Jjasonsperrymd @Guyettef

Honored to receive a Circle of Excellence Award for life-saving actions in the field, alongside legendary paramedic Steve Nelson. This was a full circle call that reflected teamwork at every stage in care and the work of @BostonTrauma @CMTorres_MD @LeoCFD_emsLTOWB

Happy #Match2026 to all of the incoming residents! I wanted to share some of the most invaluable resources I’ve used that have made my life as a PGY1 on wards a lot easier

First: the MGH Housestaff Manual 2025 edition PDF- great for admissions, wards, subspecialty rotations!

Every oncologist and cancer researcher should watch this interview with @BenSasse:

Daraxonrasib, a “super poison for cancer,” shrank his metastatic pancreatic tumors by 76%, even though he says his skin feels and looks “nuclear.” When I learned of his diagnosis, I wanted him to get this drug (oral RAS ON inhibitor), which is poised to become first-line therapy in pancreatic cancer. I hope his experience on a clinical trial encourages more patients to enroll in studies, and pushes clinicians and researchers to keep advancing new therapies.

@ludachrist0pher @rbarbosa91 @topknife If you can easily get a line, go for it. But it's a shame if critical patients have no access because people feel like IO is a last resort and rather fish for lines. Esp in the prehospital setting, IOs have been huge for rapid access for the infusion of medications or blood

Canton Fire Department members have completed training on new @EchoNous_Inc KOSMOS POCUS ultrasound units, funded through a grant.
With AI-assisted imaging, our paramedics can better identify anatomy in real time—helping guide treatment decisions, procedural access, and support our Field Transfusion Team in the field.
Bringing advanced diagnostics to prehospital care = better outcomes for our patients. @CMTorres_MD @MichaelAnchan

🚨 New in @JAMASurgery
The study by @joshua_b_brown et al highlights the critical importance of clinician-level trauma volume in pre-hospital outcomes. A must-read for those looking to innovate EMS staffing and training!

@rbarbosa91 @IM_Crit_ How would you prepare if you were proceeding with prehospital thoracostomy without POCUS, knowing the dome of the liver can protrude superiorly.

[Crisanto (Santo) Torres, MD, MPH, FACS @CMTorres_MD]

Sophomore @BU_Tweets Leah Park presenting her MORE Blood (Massive Operative Resuscitation Evaluation) study describing & evaluating what we call the “second phase” of trauma resuscitation. Much more work to come out of this!! #ASC2026 @BMCSurgery @BostonTrauma @MichaelAnchan

[Canton Firefighters IAFF Local 1580 @cantonfire1580]

Please check out our Facebook page in regards to our Blood Transfusion Program! The service we have been providing has been added to the Massachusetts Statewide EMS Protocols as the standard of care for a trauma patient!

[Michael Anchan @MichaelAnchan]

From a “a pick up truck with a unit of blood” to this. Solid work @LeoCFD_emsLTOWB

[Crisanto (Santo) Torres, MD, MPH, FACS @CMTorres_MD]

MA has recognized our work and success over the past 2 yrs of our prehospital whole 🩸program (1st in MA). Proving naysayers wrong. BMC-Canton Fire set the standard. Now officially approved statewide!! Leo Reardon and Dr. Mike Valkanas, couldn’t do it without you. @BMCSurgery

Neighborhood socioeconomic deprivation had a greater impact on firearm injury rates than protective effects seen with state firearm laws, according to analysis of more than 200 000 incidents nationwide.
