A patient with GI bleeding can be in shock despite having a normal blood pressure (Class 1 and 2 shock).

A low blood pressure indicates Class 3+ shock, equating to at least 1500ml of intravascular volume deficit.

5 shifts to go 😮‍💨

It’s so insane to me that in rotational training, you can end up at a faraway hospital that will make your life shit for a year. Do you understand how long a year of your life is?? A year of long commutes, sleep deprivation, cancelled social events, scrambling to get home

@TheOtherDrJD Happy Birthday 🥳

[Tom @puddlegrump]

Worked the weekend. Fri-Sun 8.30-21.30. No tube or trains so up at 6.15, home at 10.15. Med Reg for the entire hospital except Acute. And today? Three emergency emails and phone calls re events at the weekend. LEAVE ME ALONE
