@bryanacotton1 But see doi: 10.1002/14651858.CD012234.pub2. I am concerned about longer term rate of adhesional obstruction: follow-up of one year may not be sufficient. Anecdotal only but a local surgeon started doing this & started getting lots of adhesional SBOs later...

This is not a tweet about human factors...

It's about remembering human values during the coronavirus outbreak.

Civility, respect & kindness towards others when tensions, anxiety & stress rise..

Finishing an article for @bmj_latest about it... look out for each other.!

I have written to @Jacob_Rees_Mogg to express my sincere disappointment and show my support for doctors across the country, particularly @djnicholl.

Doctors are amongst the most trusted people in our country; it is worth listening to what they have to say with respect.

[The BMJ @bmj_latest]
