King's College Hospital in London has opened a rooftop garden for critical care patients. Its first patient, a 29-year-old woman dependent on feeding tubes, said the outdoor space gave her 'a real boost to keep on going

BRONCHOSCOPY IN THE ICU

[Drew Moghanaki @DrewMoghanaki]

A splendid example of the unreliability of propensity-matching methods that would claim these two individuals have the same prognosis.

We implore authors, peer reviewers, and journal editors to stop perpetuating the concept of static and cidal antibiotics, given the aforementioned evidence demonstrating it is a myth. #IDXposts

😕 Are you confused by the current model of VILI (ie, ergotrauma, MP)? I was.

And then I read V Modesto’s ⭐️amazing⭐️ editorial in #journal_CHESTCritCare… & I finally got it!💡

A great review by @icmteaching, @Wilkinsonjonny and Dr Kasal discussing the use of #POCUS in the four phases of shock

BTW, nice blend of (patho-)physiology references & bedside applications!

[Michael Toolan @mjtoolan]

@SW_Help Yes. But as I said above could only buy the 4 tickets in two separate transactions. Never as one transaction for 4 tickets. Presumably not the intended functionality…

[Michael Toolan @mjtoolan]

@SW_Help Hi, trying to buy tickets from London to Bournemouth in July. Tried on laptop and phone but keep getting to end of the process, click to pay, and get error: "we're having difficulty getting the data; try again later." Been going on for the past few hours. What's up?!

[Michael Toolan @mjtoolan]

@SW_Help I feel like I've explained this very clearly and it must be an SWR issue. Otherwise why could I buy the tickets as 3+1 but not as 4? I'll leave it to you and your colleagues to investigate.

[Michael Toolan @mjtoolan]

@SW_Help Also, if your website allowed someone to get all the way through to paying for tickets that weren't available that would be quite a problem in itself, surely?

[Michael Toolan @mjtoolan]

@SW_Help But surely links into the SWR back end? Anyway… Advance Single £18.80 Waterloo-Bournemouth and Advance Single £12.40 back. Thanks for following up.

[Michael Toolan @mjtoolan]

@SW_Help Booked them as 3 then another 1. Separate bookings. Identical trains and prices (there were 6 available out and 9 back so not an availability problem). Clearly a problem with your booking engine as tickets available to book but wouldn't go through an in one go.

[Michael Toolan @mjtoolan]

@SW_Help Yup. Those trains and tickets. I'm trying to book for four adults. Just tried again now and same issue. Can you try that please? Given it's happening for me on two different browsers/devices and on Trainline, can't see it being anything other than a SWR issue.

[Michael Toolan @mjtoolan]

@SW_Help 11/7 Waterloo-Bournemouth 1105, 18/7 Bournemouth-Waterloo 1422. Pretty striking that Trainline also not working. Does suggest SWR issue?

[Michael Toolan @mjtoolan]

@SW_Help This is getting a bit beyond a joke. What can you do to allow me to buy these tickets? Thanks!
