♦️ Holodiastolic retrograde flow in abdominal aorta PW doppler

✅ 93%% specificity, 100% sensitivity

♦️ VTI of diastolic retrograde flow > 15cm

✅ 86% specificity, 91% sensitivity

Ok. A few bits. Will add a context of intravenous sedation for long bone fracture manipulation as an example. 1. Even when the pre-sedation environment is tense, noisy, loud, etc., speak gently with the patient before you start. Allocate someone to continue to speak smoothly and

I would be happy just not needing to power up the additional computer screen just to check the three different documents/ spreadsheets/ emails in order to arrange leave/ swaps!!

From this end, it also appears true. We have lots of english-accented junior doctors- and whenever I hear one I relax- knowing this person will be hard working, well trained and experienced. UK seems to be a great medical school.

@Dr_Done_ Chatting to a nursing colleague this am. Her son is a FY1 in England. He’s so completely disillusioned. >£100k of student debt to be under the supervision of a PA who has a status level > registrars on the ward. He won’t be staying in the UK post foundation.

Here’s something I think ANAESTHESIA UK can be proud of

Among 881 perioperative cardiac arrests (12% post op)

92% senior anaesthetist present at induction of the patient

75% even in the deep dark hours

73% consultant present at cardiac arrest

Excellent matching of seniority to high risk patients.

Call for help - senior response common & rapid
58% arrived <1 min
97% arrived <5 min

Interesting to compare NHS vs independent sector data
But you’ll need to read the chapter to understand that properly……

Why would adenosine, a purine nucleoside, be able to treat supraventricular tachycardias (SVT)?

And why are its effects so short lived (e.g. &lt;2 seconds)?

The answers will change the way you think about this drug.

To everyone who got annoyed with me about the poppies thing.
My tweet obviously implied poppies are a worthy cause.
Watch this... and calm down.
