The ABS is eliminating ABSITE percentiles. Why? Percentile scores are unstable, misleading, and never meant to guide promotions or fellowship decisions.

@maxrushden Fraser Forster isn't very good with his feet is he?

[Danielle Belardo, MD @DBelardoMD]

Heartbroken after seeing a young patient with no medical history, end up with a BIFFL GRADE II dissection of the vertebral artery and subsequent acute PICA infarct immediately after a neck adjustment from the chiropractor. This has to stop.

Chiropractors - you HAVE to stop.

[Rob Mac @robflanker]

@LEOPARDSANCTITY You should ask Nick. He would have known the right order

@maxrushden @NickyBandini @larssivertsen @PhilKitro @bglendenning No question but need more Barry kitchen utensil talk

[Rob Mac @robflanker]

Great video and great resource for trainees and faculty alike

Direct gasless optical entry in Palmer’s point - one of the many ways to gain initial access in #MIS. What is your primary method and which area? What’s your back-up? @mj_pucci @OMGhanemMD @EricKnauerMD @AnkitPatelMD @HPB_Surgeon

@maxrushden @guardian_sport @JohnBrewin_ @bglendenning @Towno10 More a comment that Barry saying "Belgian doesn't have that many famous people" feels like his "Poland haven't done anything at tournament" comment

800 police officers at the Chiefs parade

1,000,000 people at the Chiefs parade

All 1,000,000 of those people were allowed to carry guns to the parade under Missouri’s weak gun laws

But sure, tell me again how more guns equals more safety…

My God. Stop what you're doing and watch this.

Can't intubate, can't ventilate - you've tried the bowling ball 🎳 technique, and an SGA won't seat (or their face is missing). You have to cric. Use the 4-step method the US military has perfected over the past 1.5 decades.
1. Knife 🔪 - 4+ cm incision of the neck (this is not the time to be dainty), 1cm incision of cric membrane
2. Finger - insert into new airway to hold position
3. Bougie - insert into trachea, will stop around 10cm
4. Tube - insert your tube over the bougie

Balanced resuscitation with whole blood versus component therapy in critically injured pre-adolescent children. This finding should encourage whole blood resuscitation when available over the use of component therapy.

One of the most important videos any medical trainee will ever see

[Emily Porter, M.D. @dremilyportermd]

Said every emergency physician and neurologist who has cared for multiple people under age 40 with devastating strokes caused by vertebral artery dissection from rapid neck manipulation by chiropractors.
